[j-nsp] VLAN tagging on fxp?

I'm in an environment where I need to tag the
traffic to a junipers out-of-band management port.
After configuring the port I ran into some problems.. 
ssh went just fine but when trying to upload/download
new firmware it just stopped. Debugging turned out that
subinterfaces to the fxp0 interface have a MTU of 1496.

Is it possible to change this?
mtu does not seem to be an option on the fxp interface!?
I tried setting it manually with ifconfig but to no avail

Juniper: feature request!?

    fxp0 {
        vlan-tagging;
        unit 10 {
            vlan-id 10;
            family inet {
                address xx.xx.xx.xx/24;
            }
