I'm not familiar with all the workings under the hood, however I assume 
it is done in one of these 2 ways:
1. The Xen network scripts take the configuration of eth0 *before* the 
bridge is created, and transfers it to the bridge xenbr0.
2. The bridge is configured in /etc/network/interfaces as usual...

I don't know which one it is, because my bridge is called eth0 and so 
eth0 is configured in the interfaces file, even though the physical 
interface is moved to peth0.
Interestingly I also use Debian/Xen (squeeze), all installed via debian 
repository and it doesn't use xenbr0 but eth0 instead for the bridge name.
