I appreciate that you spend time on it, but my feeling is that it
definately isn't reproducible in all environments (otherwise we would
probably have seen a large cry by now).

I'm trying to bisect the "fix" down and hope that'll tell us something
more.

If you do the test, remember, that it is not like "bonding isn't
working". It just fails to initialize correctly at bootup and doesnt get
the link state by itself. Subsequently doing a /etc/init.d/networking
restart brigs it correct up.
