    It looks like you have built your kernel without INET6 and are loading
    if_bridge as a module (automatically from ifconfig).

    Modules are built independently from the kernel so you will need to put

      NO_INET6=yes

    in your /etc/make.conf and rebuild the module (cd
    /sys/modules/if_bridge; make; make install clean)

    cheers,

    Andrew
