So, network availability drops out even without unprivileged domains. I'm using default xen configuration, machines are on the same subnet (10.8.6.61 and 10.18.6.60), connected by switch.

Does it matter that Gentoo (in current stable version) uses `ifconfig` and `route` to setup networking and /etc/xen/scripts/network uses iproute2 package? It shouldn't, AFAIK.

One thing that I don't understand is that `ifconfig` shows that eth0 holds its IP address even after xen-br0 has been brought up (and xen-br0 has /32 netmask...):
(lo removed from output)
