It definitely has to do with the version of the bridge utils. I recompiled the bridge-utils included with Centos 5.7 (bridge-utils-1.1-3.el5.src.rpm) for Centos 6.2. Works perfectly now:
# brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces vbr314 0000.e41f131c3efc no bond0.314 vnet0 vbr315 0000.e41f131c3efc no bond0.315 It would be nice however if it would work with the default bridge-utils version (bridge-utils-1.2-9.el6.x86_64).
