No problem here. The trunk(4) man page would never possibly describe
this because it changes from router to router and also, some routers
don't have this capability or they have but, through some obscure
setting (as my own, which isn't through obscure setting at all but,
instead, need to me NOT configuring some things to work as a bridge).
Once you have your router working as a bridge, the man page's example
fit's perfectly to what you want to accomplish.
I think ipsec part IS the problem. Don't know about your setup but, it
would be much easier to you to use OpenVPN +  tun with layer 2 tunneling
+ bridge.
As i said, the first case is simple, the second not so, but i think you
can manage them to work. I just don't know if, in the second case, it
will work with trunk. Never tested it.  But the first case works
perfectly for me.

My regards,
