Actually, I tried putting the GATEWAY in the specific ifcfg-eth0, as 
well as the global /etc/sysconfig/network and it seems to be ignored.
Of course things 'appear' to work just fine, but the route that is setup is

default         *               0.0.0.0         U     0      0        0 eth0

INSTEAD OF:

default         router.example.com 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

The former seems to cause all arp entries to be queried and cached. The latter works correctly. 
Both 'appear to work'. Does the route on your domU look like the second entry?
