I am not sure about the bridging support, however, you should be able to
route just fine.  Last that I had heard, the briding support was still
rather developmental.  It would also make your linux box rather worthless
for Inet access since, if I remember correctly, you can't have an ip bound
to either network interface on the bridge.
