how can something be called a bug, if it apparently cannot be fixed in any
IOS version? And has been around forever and continues to be around?

Actually the only way is to do a "no interface subinterface", save and
reload the router.
Then after reboot you will be able to create the subinterface again with a
different link type.
If you don't do this method and just delete the interface and recreate
using a different link
type it won't work and will complain.

  This is a well known IOS bug.
