What is your MTU on the VLAN interfaces? It should be 1500, like so:
vlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
There is a patch for the xl driver, which can be found on
http://www.physics.purdue.edu/~csg/FreeBSD/xl_vlan.patch
Last time I applied this patch to a 4.2-STABLE, it did not patch
cleanly, so I just inserted the respective code fragment by hand.
If there is any interest, I can supply a diff.
Note also that VLAN tagging with the xl driver will only work with
the 3c905B card, the C revision cannot do this AFAIK.
The fxp driver can be also used, using this patch:
