 I would think then it might be switch related. What brand/model of switch do 
you have?

Looking at the Wikipedia page for Link aggregation[1], it seems that 802.3ad 
mode creates groups from ports that share the same speed and duplex settings. 
There is also an implication that support has to be present on the switch, so I 
certainly wouldn't rule that out.

With regard to your Xen instances, ensure that there is only interacting with 
bondX interfaces, and not ethX. Check inside /etc/xen/vif-bridge and 
network-bridge... bridging could certainly be a factor so you ought to take 
down your Xen instances and see if it works.

Also, can you see any LACP frames going in and out of all of the interfaces?
