Oh btw, before anyone asks - we added compatability code to vif-bridge, so if you have any existing guest config files which refer to 'xenbr0' they will automatically join the eth0 bridge device instead. So existing guests are supposed to 'just work' even though the Dom0 network config changed a little.
