There are no "non-switched" ports on a 6500.  VLAN space is global, so
"tag 100" on one port is "the global vlan 100"

(Unless you add vlan translation, which is not as flexible as it could be)

use a different tag :-) - and yes, this is one of the big drawbacks of
the 6500 architecture (or, depending how you use it, one of the strong
sides) - it's a switch, with routing.  So vlan space is "switchy".
