I once made this working with the bridging code. Unfortunately I can't find the mail that described the necessary changes (I asked about a similar setup on the bridging ml several years back). It was something like "change the bridge in a way that it doesn't drop packets with out MAC address from forwarding it to the enslaved devices. Just a few lines had to be changed, and it worked great with Lucent WaveLAN cards out of the box. If such an setup would be ok for you, I'd try to find the print-out of the mail in question. I'm sure that I have it somewhere here.
