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.

Cheers,
Reinhard
