This may apply to you.  I was able to copy out a vhd from vbox and load it into 
ACS to use on XenServer hosts. This only worked if I selected the dynamic type 
of vhd not the fixed size one.  It only worked in non PV mode but I think that 
was because I did not have a proper grub file with the correct root device.  
Prior to uploading the vhd as a template you can bzip2 it to shrink the size.
