Unfortunately, the reason it's undocumented is because (while it does work) it's not a recommended solution because it breaks several other features in broctl.

Better ways to accomplish the same thing are to..
1. Bridge your interfaces together in your operating system to present a single interface to Bro.
2. Run Bro as a cluster where each worker node runs on the same box but sniff different interfaces.
