Ok, in the process of starting xend (for the first time in a boot),  
the physical NIC is brought down, the bridges are set up and then the  
NIC is brought up again, this is described in:

XenNetworking#head-04ebcc1760dbc4678e83b116afa310dc0612dc39
I worked with Maria on this and it turns out that she has a NFS mount  
in her path, am surprised it ever worked.
So it looks like we cannot have any networking dependencies (nfsroot  
anyone) until xend has started.
