You could pass the NIC through into each pv guest, or create a bridge for
each NIC using a custom wrapper and then use a vif statement to add a NIC
in each guets to each bridge you want. The later is the least complex.

Joe, thanks for your valuable info.  Unfortunately, I'm kinda dumb at this.  
Don't know where or how to create vif statements, bridges, wrappers or the 
like.  Don't happen to have an example of all this stuff do you?  This way I 
could just copy it over to my side.  Thanks.

-Hans
