We're also seeing interfaces dropping after upgrading bridged 8.10
guests to 10.04 on the same Xen host (Centos 5.5). This is the most
similar bug report I can find at the moment, so I'm describing our
experiences here.

Our guests have two interfaces on the guest connected to the same bridge
on the Xen host. In all situations (we've experienced this a dozen+
times), only *one* of these interfaces has dropped, and usually during
periods of high load.

Another interesting thing to note is that we have *not* experienced this
behavior on any newly installed 10.04 guests - only guests that were
upgraded from 8.10 to 10.04. In more than one case, reinstalling 10.04
on a guest experiencing this problem more than once a week has prevented
it from reoccurring ever since (months). The problem not reoccurring
doesn't necessarily mean the upgrade is what caused it since we can't
manually trigger the problem, but it's worth mentioning.

We have a dozen or so systems that have been affected by this, and
several hundred that are in danger of losing network connectivity
without a fix. Please let me know if I should file a new bug, or if any
additional information would help debug! This happens weekly, and when
we lose a single, we're still able to access the guest via another
interface, so that might be a nice avenue towards isolating the bug.
