+1.  That will fix the issue.  And doesn't require putting
non-standard init scripts (or edits to rc.local) into place that could
confuse an admin that knows how RedHat does things.

For what it's worth, I just looked on one of my KVM hosts at the configs.

ifcfg-bond0:
DEVICE=bond0
TYPE=Ethernet
BRIDGE=brg0
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no

ifcfg-brg0:
DEVICE=brg0
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
DELAY=0

(yes, I do use DHCP on my production networks - lets me manage IP
addressing centrally rather than on each individual box; but the OP
probably doesn't need the DHCP address on his interface, so should use
BOOTPROTO=none assuming he wants no IP on the bridge)
