Anyone know why that is?  I ran into the same thing recently on a 7600. 
Configuring it as an SVI makes it a little easier to change how/where the 
connection terminates on the 7600...and also, even if you do a no 
switchport, it's handled internally as a vlan/SVI...so I didn't expect 
this difference in behavior.
