Oh, you're right, this might be a different issue. /sys/class/net/bond0/link_mode shows "0", even though the device in /etc/network/interfaces is configured with "bond-mode 1". And I'm not seeing the "unintialized port" errors anymore, but it still fails to come up when initially started, I have to give it a "service networking restart" before it starts.
