I haven't had any responses to the below question, so I'm resending
just in case anyone who knows the answer missed it.

Basically I'm used to setting vifname in xen 2.0.x but on one
server that is running -unstable from late november it seems that is
ignored.  Was vifname functionality removed in xen 3?
