I'm afraid that with folks running hundreds of vlan interfaces per
host out there, any reasonable default would be too small to fit
every case.  When I faced the problem, I took a quick look at if
it would be possible to make it a sysctl, but it seemed to me not
so easy, so I just bumped the define that time becuase had to make
my routers work ASAP.  The task of making it a sysctl may need a
re-examination...
