Excellent, thanks.

That's because in your config tests with vlans on bonds, your call to ifup -a doesn't actually process the bond or its vlans. Your ifup -a starts processing one of the bond slaves, and that causes the bond interface to by created. The bond creation is detected by udev, and udev tells systemd, and systemd then invokes ifup directly on the bond interface. By the time your ifup -a has gotten to trying to bring up the bond (or its vlans), they are already up because of udev detection which invokes the 'hotplug' ifup that logs to systemd logs, not your stdout.
