It's also invoked by create_bridge() inside xend. So I had to blow away
/var/lib/xend/state and that's fixed the problem.

Anyway, all seems better now except for some hotplug slowness on my test
machine for the first VM I create after rebooting the host (possibly a stale
lock file that I'm having to wait to time out).

However, there *are* still a lot of references to xenbr0 in the tools/
directory, including in our example configs. Should we get rid of these
references, or change to 'bridge=eth0'?
