mspo on #netbsd has helped me track this down - some logic is wrong here:

wm2 = /23
wm4 = /29 (a chunk of the /23 - a transit network)

*make the /29 carp on the /29 wm*
14:37 trajan:~# ifconfig carp3  193.34.28.10 netmask 255.255.255.248
vhid 25 pass fkjhsdf carpdev wm4
ifconfig: SIOCAIFADDR: Can't assign requested address
*breaks*

*make the /29 carp on the /23 wm*
14:37 trajan:~# ifconfig carp3  193.34.28.10 netmask 255.255.255.248
vhid 25 pass fkjhsdf carpdev wm2
*works*

but I want it on wm4 (/29) - the carpdev option seems not to like me doing
what I want.
