Have you tried bonding in domU instead?
VLANs on Xen dom0 is reliable enough (provided you create the VLANs on
interfaces that xend doesn't touch, or disable network-bridge script in
xend-config.sxp). Regarding "live migrate the guest to a host which
doesn't have two cards", you can simply create an extra bridge on that
host which has no real physical interface attached, and bonding's ARP
monitor (not the MII monitor) should properly detect that network
connectivity on that interface is bad.
