Seems not. Still 2 bridges with no interfaces assigned to them.

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
eth0.6          8000.000000000000       no
peth0.6         8000.000000000000       no

And still no /proc/net/vlan.

Yes, VLANs do work if I configure them normally.
i.e.
# ifup vlan16
# ls /proc/net/vlan/
config  eth0.16
