I found the answer to this issue in a thread on the xen-users list, John Haxby explains the issue here:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-02/msg00760.html
What I did was download this rpm:
bridge-utils-1.2-9.fc13.x86_64.rpm
And did an rpm -Uvh and now I am seeing this on a 'brctl show' command:
brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
xenbr3 8000.001125a5ce44 no bond0.3
xenbr5 8000.001125a5ce44 no bond0.5
Pasi, you might want to look into this on your tutorial, http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/RHEL6Xen4Tutorial or mention what causes the "/sys/class/net/<BridgeName>/bridge: No such file or directory" error to appear on a 'brctl show'.
While my system still worked with the errors with no issues, the output was ugly to have to look at. :)
Hope that helps someone else,
Jon
