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
