How about trying the following:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0 ctn0
bridge_fd 0
bridge_stp off
pre-up ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00:01
Btw, that came from a workaround to a completely unrelated bridging
problem with libvirt
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/libvirt/+bug/579892).
