Yes, but I only set it up to see if the problem is with vge, so it was 
down when I initially saw the problem.  They do have different IP 
addresses, so while the ARP reply might come from either, I would think 
that it would be correct, and all incoming traffic would go to the right 
interface.  I'm not sure about outgoing traffic.  There weren't any 
warnings in dmesg or /var/log/messages about my configuration.
