One slightly dodgy way of doing this, without much screwing around is to
use bridging.

Works kinda like throwing mud around and hoping that some sticks, but once
the arp tables are updated, it works pretty well. I'm currently using
OpenBSD's bridging, from a few minor versions ago. Works fine to join a
10Base and 100Base network together.
