Hi, just to explain further, ARP does not seem to work in the following 
situation:

client (tap0, 10.0.80.6) -> server (tap0 -> bridge0 -> em1, 10.0.80.77 
-> carp1, 10.0.80.1)

On the server I see on the em1 interface with tcpdump:

16:45:56.992297 00:bd:bf:f6:08:00 > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype ARP 
(0x0806), length 42: arp who-has 10.0.80.1 tell 10.0.80.6

but the server does not reply.

If the client is directly on the em1 interface (another machine which is 
directly on the LAN and not via the bridge), the server DOES reply:

16:46:47.502250 00:0c:29:e2:46:c8 > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype ARP 
(0x0806), length 60: arp who-has 10.0.80.1 tell 10.0.80.3
16:46:47.502283 00:0c:29:61:2a:55 > 00:0c:29:e2:46:c8, ethertype ARP 
(0x0806), length 42: arp reply 10.0.80.1 is-at 00:00:5e:00:01:02

Regards,
Sebastiaan
