(In reply to Brandon Helsley from comment #2)
What exactly is the bug?  Indeed, vmm needs to be loaded on the system before
you can use bhyve at all.  It can be loaded using loader.conf or with kldload. 
If you use a bhyve wrapper script like vmrun, this will be done automatically.

net.link.tap.up_on_open=1 needs to be set if you are using a tap interface on
the host to pass packets through to the virtual network interface in the guest.
 That is documented:
