I just tried this, and NetworkManager didn't bring up either the
physical interface or the bridge.  Here are ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-br0:

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
IPV6INIT=no
HWADDR=00:22:4d:4f:c7:ed
BRIDGE=br0
#NM_CONTROLLED=no

IPADDR=172.31.250.1
GATEWAY=172.31.250.254
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
DEVICE=br0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Bridge
IPV6INIT=no
DELAY=0
#NM_CONTROLLED=no

Anyone have any ideas?
