VH> what command are you using exactly? it certainly works here.

After enough tinkering around, I've found the issue.

Looks like I need to issue a "ifconfig bce0 -vlanhwtag" command to the
interface before issuing the vlan "ifconfig bce0.10 create" command.
Surprisingly, it looks like I can issue a "ifconfig bce0 vlanhwtag"
command afterwards, and everything is good.

Very weird.  But I'm happy I found a work around for the time being.
