This is definitely a candidate for a short shell script which maps
this to the correct invocation of 'ip'.

To quote the upstream webpage for vlan-1.9:

    It is very unlikely that you need to download anything from this
site, the packages are left here for posterity's sake.

    802.1Q VLANs and MAC-VLANs can be created with the 'ip' utility
(vconfig works for vlans, but is crufty and deprecated).

If upstream says it's crufty and deprecated, I wouldn't want to depend on it.
