"If the IFCAP_VLAN_MTU capability is set on a vlan parent, vlan assumes that the Ethernet chip on the parent can handle oversized frames." given the output of "grep IFCAP_VLAN_MTU /sys/dev/pci/* /sys/dev/ic/*", I'd say probably not.... I haven't been really impressed by the vr nics, you might want to choose cases that fit at least one PCI slot so you have the option of fitting a riser and something like fxp(4) or sk(4) for VLANs/heavier traffic etc in case you don't like the vr(4). (pretty much any gigabit nic is likely to be acceptable - OpenBSD supports most of them - but sk(4) out of preference).
