See vlan(4) and ifconfig(8). Excerpt from vlan(4): "Each vlan interface is created at runtime using interface cloning. This is most easily done with the ifconfig(8) create command or using the cloned_interfaces variable in rc.conf(5)." So loading if_vlan / compiling into kernel isn't sufficient. Also look at http://people.freebsd.org/~arved/vlan/vlan_en.html (it's slightly outdated).
