It's been almost a year and no response to the bugzilla. There was a
related bug on RHEL5, which was supposedly fixed in beta2.

The core issue is that renaming the bond device will lose its slaves
and they require re-enslaving in the xen scripts otherwise your
network stops working at all.

Can anyone confirm that bonding/xen really works on RHEL5? If so, can
we have the fix also for FC6?
