For what it's worth, we never had any problem with the old style "bond_master eth0 eth1" syntax. On a server, typically all the slaves will become available pretty much at the same time during the boot process - devices hot-plugged at a later time is generally not the use case you'd need to optimise for. So waiting until the primary slave appears before setting up the bonding interface seems to me to be a perfectly adequate way to handle this .
