when testing withouth xen kernel, but bonded devices, I had vlans on top of 
the bonding device. for testing, the bonding device had the IP address, so 
the vlan's on top of it, were unused, so I thought they could not be the 
problem. The tests without bond, were without the vlan interfaces on top.
Maybe I should try again with bonding enabled but without the vlan 
interface.
