I couldn't find any reference to any major changes in kernel 2.6.32-279 in 
regards to vlans. It's most likely a bug.

Thanks for finding this, we hit this bug and had to roll back last thursday.  
It seems for us to only get Broadcom nics using bnx2.  This is the 2nd 
regresssion bug with network drivers in the last two releases that Red Hat put 
out (The RHEL5.8 release kernel had a issue with tg3 w/ vlans). Ugh.

Thanks,
derek
