    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
      1.55 +2 -0 src/sys/netinet6/nd6.c
      1.33 +1 -0 src/sys/netinet6/nd6_nbr.c

    Thanks to Andrew for his speedy solution!

    Bruce.
