Actually, bridging mostly works.

However, I've found that I can't attach Cisco and a few other cards
when bridging is enabled.  It apperas that somehow those packets don't
wind up in the right place, but instead go over the bridge (which
makes no sense to me having stared at the code, but I've had it happen
to me time and time again).  This is with BRIDGE, not ng_bridge.  I've
not investigated the latter.
