This is an old problem with FreeBSD 6.x.

Three questions:
Why has this not been patched in the CVS tree?

It has already been fixed in -CURRENT.

Unless, of course, this is a different bug. I believe the bug you are referring to is the one whereby carp doesn't back out of allocations it makes on member interfaces correctly.

Is there a solution that works?

Not for RELENG_6.

Should I be posting this to freebsd-questions?

Mu.

It's unlikely the fix will be MFCed to RELENG_6 because it involves some of the changes related to address refcounting which either break the ABI or are not conservative enough for -STABLE.
