Hi Adam,
I've added some of my configs and thoughts below:

As xen brings up xen-br0 automatically, I haven't used post hooks for
dummy0:
/etc/network/interfaces includes:
auto dummy0
iface dummy0 inet static
address 192.168.254.1
netmask 255.255.255.248
network 192.168.254.0
broadcast 192.168.254.7
gateway 192.168.254.6
dns-nameservers 192.168.254.6
auto dummy1
iface dummy1 inet static
address 192.168.254.9
netmask 255.255.255.248
network 192.168.254.8
broadcast 192.168.254.15
post-up brctl addbr br1 || true
post-up brctl addif br1 dummy1 || true
post-up ifconfig br1 192.168.254.9/29
post-down brctl delif br1 dummy1
auto dummy2
iface dummy2 inet static
address 192.168.254.17
netmask 255.255.255.248
network 192.168.254.16
broadcast 192.168.254.23
post-up brctl addbr br2 || true
post-up brctl addif br2 dummy2 || true
post-up ifconfig br2 192.168.254.17/29
post-down brctl delif br2 dummy2
... and so on
/etc/xen/scripts/network includes:
bridge=${bridge:-xen-br0}
netdev=${netdev:-dummy0}
antispoof=${antispoof:-yes}
I'm not sure if multiple bridge & netdev statements work here,
but nice if it does.
BTW:
The post hook configuring the ip of the bridge is wrong, as this
method only works if the bridge already has an ip.
It should read:
post-up ifconfig br2 192.168.254.17 netmask 255.255.255.248
Also, I don't think it's necessary to assign ip to the dummy, but
I'll look into that later.

fw doesn't need to export the interface AFAIK, as domU1 can have the
bridge exported to it directly from dom0.
eg.
/etc/xen/Firewall includes:
name = "Firewall"
pci = ['00,0b,0', '00,0a,0' ]
nics=11
vif = [ 'mac=aa:00:00:00:22:01, bridge=br10',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:01, bridge=xen-br0',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:09, bridge=br1',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:17, bridge=br2',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:25, bridge=br3',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:33, bridge=br4',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:49, bridge=br5',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:45, bridge=br6',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:73, bridge=br7',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:81, bridge=br8',
'mac=aa:00:00:25:40:97, bridge=br9' ]
In the Firewall, the PCI NICs become eth0/1, and the bridges are eth2...
An example domU:
/etc/xen/Mail includes:
name = "MailServer"
vif = [ 'mac=AA:00:00:25:40:51, bridge=br5' ]
You can tell I've gone overboard with bridges. I'll be reducing this
number with the latest design, but they're great to have lying around
for testing :) . That many interfaces causes shorewall to think for
30-60 secs when recreating iptables rules !!!
