The attached patch (against xen-unstable) generalizes the network-bridge
(and xen-network-common.sh) script so they work:
  (a) in non-Gentoo environments missing ifup/down
  (b) when interpreted by a simple-minded shell (e.g. busybox sh)
  (c) with kernel-level ip=dhcp (no longer rely on parsing ip params from the kernel cmd line)

It should still work in all the old cases.  I've verified it still works on my
FC4-IA32e domain 0, as well as under busybox.
