Yes. It simply doesn't work.
("It" being a dot1q trunk to a pair of 3750s in my case)

Lucky me only had to put two VLANs on that bundle, so I could disentangle
(but lost redundancy, of course). That's 12.2(33)XNC1t, btw.

I haven't reported that bug yet, because I though "why should it always
be me?", but I have not heard of a fix yet.
