Hi, I had the same or at least a similar problem, upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy broke the bridge over bond setup on my Xen server. As described before, the host was able to talk to the outside and the outside was able to talk to the host but no virtual guest was able to do so. After trying lots of different parameters, adding "bond-primary eth0 eth1" to both eth0 and eth1 finally made it work again. The following changes to the /etc/network/interfaces file are the only changes I've applied to the system (except for installing tcpdump and vlan packages).
I don't have the slightest clue why this works, so if someone has an answer I'd be interested to hear it.
