Last time I tried if_bridge wouldn't run STP over vlan interfaces.
It was due some tests for IFT_ETHER only and not for IFT_L2VLAN in
the code.  However, after fixing those tests, STP was active on vlan,
but still wasn't really working, presumably due to my switch swallowing
the STP frames.  I hope to continue investigating the issue when time
permits.
