I'm setting up a bridging firewall with two Intel Pro/1000 NICs. I
first installed 3.4, however the 3.4 kernel doesn't recognize these
network cards (PCI IDs too new, I guess). So I downloaded the
snapshot kernel from
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/i386/bsd

This kernel finds the NICs, but after booting it pfctl and brconfig
started acting up. I surmised that I needed new userspace utils to
work with the new kernel, so I installed the new base35.tgz (and
nothing else) from the same place. Pfctl now works fine, but any
attempt to use brconfig gives

brconfig: bridge0: Device not configured

As far as I can tell, the kernel does include bridging support, so I
don't understand what's wrong.

Here's my dmesg:

many virtual interfaces are now clonable. run ifconfig bridge0 create
first.
