Sorry about that, I remember converting if_bridge, but looking at it, I
clearly did not.  The patch isn't quite right.  You will have to keep
the setting of if_type and call if_alloc(IFT_ETHER) and then use a
matching if_free_type(ifp, IFT_ETHER).  Alternativly, you could register
functions to allocate the arpcom for IFT_BRIDGE as at the bottom of
if_ethersubr.c.
