I use a mix of routing and bridging myself.

I treat dom0 as a router connected to a switch. eth0, my physical nic,
is on subnet A, and xen-br0 (which i create at boot, so i disable the
xend network script) is on subnet B. I then just enable ip forwarding,
and hook new domains up to xen-br0 as normal. Works really well.
