If you have a look for threads around one week ago, I was trying to
resolve very similar issue.

Anyway, I have same config as you Debian Etch, binary xen from deb packages.

1.) add the pciback.hide(00:00.0) to /etc/grub/menu.lst
2.) delete the record for that Network Card (MAC) in
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25*net.rules
3.) reboot computer and make sure that driver for that card is not
loaded (lsmod), there should not be eth* assigned to that card
4.) add pci = ('00:0.0') to domU config file
5.) start domU and make sure that:
        DomU have UDEV installed!!!
        DomU will load the driver
        DomU have record the card in /etc/udev/rules.d/z25*net.rules

And it should work.

PS: when you install UDEV in domU have a look in
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25*net.rules and delete all records - then reboot to
recreate them.
