As you are using network-bridge..
eth0 is renamed to peth0
xenbr0 is created as the bridge
xenbr0 takes on the role as eth0 by being configured the same (IP, 
subnet, etc.)
On some distros, the bridge is called "eth0" making it an easier 
transition for the user, but it is only aesthetics.
You could either configure ipv6 on xenbr0 as needed, or edit the xen 
config and change the bridge name to eth0.
