apt-get install bridge-utils ( has been done ?)
If yes, you could try remove br0 declaration from /etc/network/interfaces
and edit properly /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp . Xen should bring up bridge
with no pain after reboot. Just service xend restart might not help.
I got this error this error as reaction on any mistake in Xen network config
on Lucid.

Boris.
P.S. you could keep br0 declaration and commented out network bridging setup
in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp. It works as well.

You should be posting two things:

1) xm dmesg
2) dmesg

Aka the full boot log, from both Xen hypervisor and dom0 Linux kernel.

Pasi, I am attaching 'xm dmesg' and 'dmesg'.

Boris, bridge-utils is installed and latest.  I will try some of these other things you suggested.

Ok, I tried to adjust bridge parameters and found that I can finally get pv_ops dom0 to boot in normal timeframe if I comment out all bridge related statements in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp.  Before with 2.6.31.6 I had (network-script network-bridge) and also tried (network-script 'network-bridge bridge=br0') but these do not work with 2.6.32.12.

However, there are still errors in the pv_ops dom0 2.6.32.12 console output so I'm attaching the output so someone could see if they are serious or if there are workarounds to improve things.  I'm seeing things like 'unable to locate IOAPIC for xxx', call trace from enlighten.c, 'd0 domain attempted wrmsr', 'Detected 1226681.732 MHz processor.'(a 1.2 TeraHz processor??? - the processor is actually a 3.1 GHz processor), 'No compatible ACPI _PSS objects found.'.

Plus, why do I see slightly different outputs on the consoles?  Some errors only show on one of the consoles but not the other.
