It still doesn't work.
I made a clean install of Xen 3.0.3, and it doesn't work if I want to 
have more than 4 bridge devices:

Link veth4 is missing. This may be because you have reached the limit of 
the number of interfaces that the loopback driver supports. (...)

# dmesg|grep loop
loop: loaded (max 8 devices)


When I uninstall Xen 3.0.3, and install Xen 3.0.2, I don't have this 
problem anymore.
Uninstall Xen 3.0.2 and install 3.0.3 - problem comes back.

So I guess something's borked in Xen 3.0.3.
