Private Vlan limitation

Hi,

I am planning to use private vlans for customer webservers in DMZ & CAT6509
is having an L2 trunk(port channel) to a non-Cisco Firewall. Since there is
a limitation not to configure private vlans using LaCP/EtherChannel, how
would I define a promiscuous port in this scenario so that private vlan to
primary vlan translation could happen...

In this case can L3 switching would happen b/w private vlans ??

Any help & best practice suggesstion would be appreciable.
