Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] make network-bridge work in more environments
 
> # Made network-bridge script work on ALL systems missing ifup/down.

I like this patch, but how well tested is it?

Hacking the bridge script generally brings nothing but pain as users of
all sorts of distro you've never even heard of start complaining...
