2.6.10 is pretty old, and there have been a number of fixes to the bonding ARP monitor since then, so it may be that it is simply misbehaving (presuming that you're running the 2.6.10 bonding driver). Are you in a position to test against a more recent kernel (and/or bonding driver)? Does the miimon misbehave in a similar fashion?
Testing a more recent kernel is problematic. A new bonding driver could be possible, assuming the code hasn't changed too much.
I just did another experiment. Normally we boot via eth4 (which then becomes part of the bond with eth5 at init time). If I boot via eth6 instead, it appears as though the problem doesn't show up.
