32-bit 2-CPU RHEL-5 compatible VM guest boots successfully on Natty with the patch which I installed into a kernel in this PPA:

The history of this from my perspective is I first encountered issues with the libvirt virsh command getting stuck or not being able to reboot VM guests successfully. I chased the issue down to the bug in this ticket only to see it slipped QA testing. I went back and repeated all the tests myself to be certain. Now it's time for me to open a new bug report to petition for an SRU.
