It's really unlikely to be xend that's causing this. Are you sure its
not just xend running the network script to start the bridge?

That was my initial assumption, but running /etc/xen/scripts/network
start to start the bridge before doing transfers didn't cause any
problem. Additionally, the bridge is still up after xend is shutdown.

Didn't you say that scp immediately after boot (so presumably no xend and no bridge) also caused lockup? Sounds like some sort of race that may be affected by xend having started, but I doubt xend is to blame.
