Public bug reported:

There are a number of scripts in /etc/xen/scripts (e.g. vif-bridge, vif-
nat, &c) that use 'eth0' as a default interface when one isn't provided.

That's good and useful when it's the correct choice-- and for me, prior
to Quantal, it was. But then biosdevname came along and renamed my
PowerEdge servers' nics "em1" and "em2", violating these scripts'
implicit assumptions about interface names.

Since the biosdevname behavior isn't going to change (I gather?), these
scripts should be fixed to make a more reasonable assumption on systems
like mine.
