I'm using 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 on a whole lot of
servers, and it does not break the whole system. It doesn't eat my
lunch, it does not kill my cat and does not set all servers and the data
center on fire.

I see that there's no /usr/lib/xen-4.11/bin/pygrub indeed, and that's
something that sounds wrong. Apparently, noone involved in helping
getting Xen 4.11 into Debian so far has been a pygrub user.

So... thanks for reporting, and thanks for trying out the new packages.

I suspect it's rather obvious there's a problem, since there's no pygrub
file at all, so we have to find out why and how it can be fixed.

Also, whoever is working on the xen packaging will need to set up a test
environment which is actually using pygrub to confirm any fix will
actually work, so your help in all of this would really be appreciated.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Hans
