It could work either way, unless your DomU gets confused by the MAC 
change no every boot. Generally, it's a good idea to define a static and 
specific MAC to each DomU's vif.

This is not the complete output of "brctl show", is it? xenbr0 is the 
here. Anyway, your issue is more clear now.
Silly me! Lukas is right, your vif definition needs a bridge definition!
As he said, "vif = ['ip=IP,bridge=xenbr0']" should work.

I would change that to "vif = ['mac=MAC,bridge=xenbr0']".

"vif = ['ip=IP,mac=MAC,bridge=xenbr0']" shall also work, but the IP 
address is surely defined within DomU. Whatever you specify in "vif" 
directive as IP address, will not be taken into account normally, 
although sometimes it's useful to mention it in the config file for 
reference.
(such weired way to quote original mail, but whatever)
