Yes, I did. But net.link.ether.bridge: 0 is not enough to disable bridging
at all?

No, I don't. But this is only one of possible configurations. I must to play
with various scenario, with and without bridging. In this current case
I don't want any bridging functionality.

Anyway, I can simply use a different kernel versions in different scenario.

Yes, I want have two connections to large shared media (large
bridged/switched
net on logical link layer). I can use aliases, but this is not exact what I
need.
because I can have different rules of game at MAC layer and MAC address
can make difference.

arp: 192.168.10.254 is on de0 but got reply from 00:80:48:d9:76:77 on de1

I got last message because now kernel recompiled without bridging support.
But it looks
strange - it is not an error from my point of view... :)
