Yes, the script in current xen-unstable, when running "stop",  tests for 
veth0, which does not exist because it has been renamed to eth0.  It now 
tests for peth0, since that is the only real indication that veth0 was 
used in the first place.   There are other small fixes like removal or 
hard coded "peth0", removal of unconditional 'brctl delif xen-br0 eth0', 
and reversal of ethernet naming.
