I am also hitting this issue with a very basic bonding example:

$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
bond-master bond0
bond-primary eth0

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
bond-master bond0

auto bond0
iface bond0 inet dhcp
bond-mode active-backup
bond-miimon 100
bond-slaves none

$ ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default 
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
