A look into the bridge code:
    if [ "$MODE" = "start" ] && [ ! -d /sys/class/net/$IFACE/brif/$port ]; then
      if [ -x /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan ]; then
        env IFACE=$port /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan
      fi

the magic you describes seems to happen and removing this broke the bridge
utils package.

This still stands: I didn't know the bridge scripts were using the vlan
scripts.
Just using these two lines for every port you use in the bridge will fix your
current problem.

As for the regression: I am not sure what to do about it.
Even if it was not NMU'd I would have removed the vlan part...

Let me think
