For anyone who was following along with this, Andrew and I exchanged
some private email about this problem, he sent me a patch which I
successfully tested, and he committed the solution to HEAD in these
files:

  Revision  Changes    Path
  1.21      +27 -5     src/sys/net/if_bridge.c
  1.198     +1 -1      src/sys/net/if_ethersubr.c
  1.28      +1 -4      src/sys/netinet6/in6_ifattach.c

  1.33      +1 -0      src/sys/netinet6/nd6_nbr.c

Thanks to Andrew for his speedy solution!

Bruce.
