ifconfig bridge0 does not list bridge data?

I've just set up a new home router with current.  I'm using  
if_bridge(4) to bridge an OpenVPN connection to the local ethernet.   
Although everything seems to be working fine, ifconfig does not show  
bridge parameters:

# ifconfig bridge0
bridge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0  
mtu 1500
	ether 3a:30:67:76:af:05
	inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 10.0.0.63

In a VMware sandbox with a 10-day old -current, I get the expected  
output:

# ifconfig bridge0
bridge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0  
mtu 1500
	ether ca:26:3c:e3:7e:00
	inet 10.0.0.14 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 10.0.0.63
	id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priority 32768 hellotime 2 fwddelay 15
	maxage 20 holdcnt 6 proto rstp maxaddr 100 timeout 1200
	root id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priority 32768 ifcost 0 port 0
	member: em0 flags=143<LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP>
	        ifmaxaddr 0 port 1 priority 128 path cost 20000
	member: tap0 flags=143<LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP>
	        ifmaxaddr 0 port 4 priority 128 path cost 2000000

I also have two vlans hanging off em0.

Any ideas?


Stefan
