Hmmm... I tried it on my existing network-bridge xen just to see what would
happen (figuring an extra ethernet shouldn't hurt anything).

I get new vif0.N devices showing up in brctl, but no new ethN showing
up in the Dom0.

There are no error or success entries of any kind referring to domain/0
in the xen-hotplug.log file

I do see this in xend.log:

(That was from two separate tries). 

Does the fact that eth0 already exists screw it up? (I also have an eth1 that
is a real nic).

Maybe if I tried it one more time eth2 would actually show up? :-).

Nah, just tried it, merely have another vif0.N, but no eth2.
