Unfortunately this is still affecting me, and I can't get Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server installed on fully patched XenServer 6.0.2
I tried to get around it by installing Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS and upgrading to 10.10->11.04->11.10 (all fine) and then the upgrade from 11.10->12.04 failed with the Python upgrade crashing aborting the install with more than half of the packages not upgraded, and keeps crashing each time I try to apt-get dist-upgrade:
Setting up python2.7-minimal (2.7.3-0ubuntu3) ...
Illegal instruction (core dumped)
dpkg: error processing python2.7-minimal (--configure):
