Have you looked at /etc/defaults/rc.conf, specifically the variables
"vlans_XXX" and "create_args_vlanX" (where XXX is a NIC interface name),
to see if there is already existing support for what you need?

Just 'grep vlan /etc/defaults/rc.conf' to see what I'm taking about.

Also, comment in passing: with regards to the ifconfig_XXX="up", this is
pretty common when it comes to things like bridging and so on.  I ran
into this situation myself a few weeks ago when playing with bridging.
