the following line is no longer true of course

however having sent this I realise it may not work.. because the etf 
node doesn't take into account vlan labels, because vlan labels are 
them selvesm in fact a special case of ethertype.. (0x8100)

so to know if this will work I need to know what a packet at the 
netgraph insertion point looks like:

to find this out, attach the nghook program to an inserted ngtee node 
(inserted somewhere in your current graph) and see what comes out. 
(with -a ).

so we can see what the packets look like.
