With some further investigation this seems to relate to the network 
setup on my dom0.  If I connect to a interface+bridge it is ok but if I 
use interfaces+bond+vlan+bridge then this is where the problem arises.  
I am using gvrpcd to perform dynamic vlan membership registration from 
dom0 and on my switch it looks like this doesn't happen with problematic 
dom0 kernels.  Since this isn't related to Xen I'll take it to Linux 
net.
