  This patch is intended to fix interoperation
between bridge(4) and ng_ether(4). The problem is described
in this message:

http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-net/2004-May/003881.html

I hope that some CURRENT bridge users will help me testing it.

After applying patch you need to:

# kldload netgraph.ko
# kldload ng_socket.ko
# kldload ng_ether.ko
# kldload ng_tee.ko

.. and do the following for all your bridged interfaces:

# ngctl mkpeer fxp0: tee lower right
# ngctl connect fxp0: fxp0:lower upper left

where fxp0 stands for interface name.
