Kai, I read the Xen list and the way your doing it (the last option) looks like something I may try for testing in VMs.
It works fine, I'm converting all my setups to that now.
Indeed also I when I installed Xen I had to manually take out peth0 when I uninstalled it.
How did you manually take it down? The problem seems to be that peth0 is the physical interface now. But I'm not able to take it down as a bridge nor as a physical interface. And not without breaking the network connection, anyway.
The problem with Xen's network scripts are they assume a bare bones default network setup. If you have anything more then that then I recommend disabling the automated network setup in xend.sxp and manually setting up your bridges which sounds like the conclusion you came to after much discussion.
