We regularly do PXE provisioning over ports that are generally configured 
for bonding.  The network guys have to set the force-up parameter (forgive 
me if that's not absolutely accurate, but they translate my non-network 
speak and get it working).  This is on Juniper switches.

The result is that the PXE can happen over one of the ports for a limited 
time after the port comes up (the time here is configurable) before it 
reverts to bonding-only operation.
