I had a similar problem, though not exact. Perhaps my work-around will work for you also.
In my case, peth0 (which I needed) would not get created, but peth1 (which was useless to me) was created. I tried swapping IP addresses, name designations, etc, but the pethX device created was always for the wrong interface.
I modified the eth1 device configuration to make it not come up on boot, and peth0 was being created. I also modified my rc.local script to bring up eth1, which worked fine with regards to xen since xen had already done its thing.
It's an ugly hack, but it did the trick.

When I run the xen network-bridge script I get the following:
[root@localhost scripts]# ./network-bridge start
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 0
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 0
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 0
SIOCSIFNAME: Device or resource busy
Here is the output of my ifconfig -a (note no peth0):
