Ok, but that should than be acknowledged somewhere by someone i suppose .. and 
not stay in that state ?

Yes .. at least for the rebinding to dom0 case, because the 
pci-assignable-remove seems to do it forcefully now. But i haven't tried what it 
does when reassigning to another guest (if it forcefully swaps ownership then, 
since the pci-assignable-remove isn't involved then).

Will give the xen patch a try.
