I made another attempt with netgraph and I think I'm almost there, but I'm
still having some issues.  I found a linux solution called veth
http://www.geocities.com/nestorjpg/veth/ which might do the job, but I would
prefer to use netgraph if possible.  Here is some more detailed config
information.

I ran this on the spoof machine

# ngctl mkpeer . eiface hook ether
# ifconfig ngeth0 link 00:bd:03:12:12:12
# ifconfig ngeth0 192.168.10.3 netmask 255.255.255.0

# ngctl mkpeer ngeth0: bridge lower link0
# ngctl name ngeth0:lower broken
# ngctl connect fxp0: broken: lower link1
# ngctl connect fxp0: broken: upper link2
# ngctl connect ngeth0: broken: upper link3
# ngctl msg ngeth0: setpromisc 1
# ngctl msg ngeth0: setautosrc 0
# ngctl msg fxp0: setpromisc 1
# ngctl msg fxp0: setautosrc 0

# ngctl show broken:
  Name: broken          Type: bridge          ID: 00000046   Num hooks: 4
  Local hook      Peer name       Peer type    Peer ID         Peer hook
  ----------      ---------       ---------    -------         ---------
  link3           ngeth0          ether        00000005        upper
  link2           fxp0            ether        00000004        upper
  link1           fxp0            ether        00000004        lower
  link0           ngeth0          ether        00000005        lower

on the remote machine an arp -a lists this
? (192.168.10.3) at 00:bd:03:12:12:12 on rl0 [ethernet] 
? (192.168.10.1) at 00:00:e8:5b:13:44 on rl0 permanent [ethernet]

on the spoof machine an arp -a lists this
? (192.168.10.1) at (incomplete) on ngeth0 [ethernet]
? (192.168.10.3) at 00:bd:03:12:12:12 on ngeth0 permanent [ethernet]

Any clues or pointers are greatly appreciated and will mean I get to deploy
FreeBSD with netgraph rather than linux with veth.
