You don't need a patch at all. What you do is: Queue on the physical
interface, classify on the vlan interface. It is broken to allow ALTQ on
a virtual interface if you can do it otherwise.
in pf.conf speak:
If you have "ifconfig vlanX vlandev bge0 ..."
altq on bge0 .... queue { vlan0, vlan1, ... }
queue vlan0 ... { vlan0_foo, vlan0_bar, ... }
queue vlan0_foo
queue vlan0_bar
...
pass on vlanX ... queue vlanX_foobar
And there you go. No patch - whatsoever - required here.
