When I configure something like this on a sup720-3bxl (with only LAN  
interfaces like WS-6704-10GE or WS-6724-xx facing the MPLS-Core + some  
variant of SXFxx software running):

vlan 23

int vlan 23
  xconnect 1.2.3.4 5 enc mpls

This pops up in my log:

Oct 14 20:25:18 UTC: %C6K_MPLS_COMMON-3-L3_CONFIG_NOT_RECOMMENDED: LAN  
interfaces have MPLS configured. Do not configure xconnect on  
interface vlans.

I actually did not try whether it still works or not. But at least it  
makes me worry... Is this what you meant by Vlan mode EoMPLS or did  
you mean the subinterface thingy (which definitely works)?

int gi2/10.23
   enc dot1q 23
   xconnect 1.2.3.4 5 enc mpls
