RE: ipxe and mboot.c32
This code from https://gist.github.com/2769396 shows how it's possible to boot the VMware installer directly from iPXE without using mboot.c32. You might be able to adapt it to your Xen loader.

Code:
# Based on details from http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.upgrade.doc_50%2FGUID-2F0D4696-3681-4C13-9552-5280C6406376.html
set base-url http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/
kernel ${base-url}tboot.b00
imgargs tboot.b00 ks=${base-url}ks.cfg
module ${base-url}b.b00
module ${base-url}useropts.gz
module ${base-url}k.b00
module ${base-url}a.b00
module ${base-url}s.v00
module ${base-url}weaselin.v00
module ${base-url}tools.t00
module ${base-url}imgdb.tgz
module ${base-url}imgpayld.tgz
boot
