Yes. It's not really correct. A correct approach is already commited to HEAD.
Unfortunately, I can't MFC this because of ABI policy for RELENG_5 branch.

I would advice you to stay with the patch, since it works for you. I'd also
encourage you to move to 6.0-RELEASE, when first release candidates will be
coming out. I am going to use carp(4) over vlan(4) in 6.0-RELEASE in production,
so I will be testing this functionality when we will enter release candidate
phase of release cycle.
