I noticed them too after I sent the email and rewrote the vlan script.
Now they look like this:

96: eth2.2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
     link/ether 00:0a:cd:0d:79:7e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 192.168.2.254/24 brd 192.168.2.255 scope global eth2.2

Despite the correction pluto still won't start. I even tried to bring 
down all vlans, but the result is the same, so be all looks it's not 
related to them.

Still:
Jan  4 00:02:20 bgs pluto[495]: FATAL ERROR: Failed to bind bcast socket 
in init_netlink(). Errno 2: No such file or directory

I managed to strace pluto:

[pid  9016] bind(9, {sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=9016, groups=00000003}, 
12) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

It might help to somebody more knowledged in the source :)
