They are Xen bridge script problems. IMO its concept of moving the
current physical interface configuration to a bridge is broken : how
could you possibly be sure to move every possible setting associated to
the interface ?

I don't pretend I'm an expert and don't know about Bastian, but we both
recommend that you don't use the Xen bridge setup script and use your
own bridge setup instead and just tell Xen to use the existing bridge.
You may alternatively fix or customize the Xen script instead but I'm
not sure it's worth the effort.

No one here said that.
