As I have stated previously, what is true for qemu (that we always have a user-provided network interface) is not true for Xen. It is quite possible that we boot with no network interface at all. In that case, we will get stuck asking for an IP that will never come. This patch takes care to call for dhcp only if our interface is really up. Since networking is such a core service, we'll print a message if we can't do that.
