This will at least not work with Sup2 on the 7600. You can
only apply VRF-s on GE-WAN ports, and those can't be
bundeled with EtherChannel. Using a hairpin from a L2-port 
to the GE-WAN limits the BW to 1G.

With a Sup720-3BXL it should work (in theory) if you assign the 
IP-adresses to SVI's on both ends.
