Looking through the CVS changelogs, I found this entry, which may be of interest:
Code:
Module name:    src
Changes by:     mpf@cvs.openbsd.org     2012/09/20 08:10:18

Modified files:
        sys/net        : bridgestp.c if_bridge.c if_bridge.h 

    Log message:
    Don't filter spanning tree BPDUs. Either process, or forward them.
    Even though this violates IEEE 802.1D, we'd rather avoid bridging loops
    by not getting in the way of STP.
    OK henning, camield, reyk
Thank you, but I'm now even more confused about BPDU.
