With ipv6, every network interface always has a link local
address. This fools the network script into thinking that
xen-br0 already has a network address, and it refuses to
transfer over eth0's IP address to xen-br0.
By grepping for 'inet ' instead of just 'inet', the network
script is no longer fooled and does the right thing. This
patch makes Xen networking work again on my Fedora system.
