Thank you Sam, but that doesn't seem to be the case.  When I did a
kldload of if_bridge, bridgestp was also loaded.  (Which of course, I
should have mentioned in my original post, please accept my apologies.)

I don't know enough about if_bridge to know what other information might
be important.   The ifconfig bridge0 create part has always pretty much
Just Worked(TM) for me as long as I loaded if_bridge.

Thank you and again my apologies for not realizing I should have
mentioned bridgestp in my original post.
