           Summary: Minus sign in vifname=vif-foo breaks domU reboots
           Product: Xen
           Version: 3.0.1
          Platform: All
               URL: http://www.BudgetDedicated.com/
        OS/Version: Linux-2.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P4
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: xen-bugzilla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


Starting a domU with "vif = [ 'vifname=vif-foo' ] in the configuration works
fine, however the automatic restart (enabled via restart = 'always', etc) will 
fail.

The minus sign seems to be responsible, and the python layer appears to handle
it incorrectly. Using vif_foo works fine.

I found this traceback in the xend.log:
Traceback (most recent call last):
