Jockey,
Trunk in foundry/extreme/hp procurve and other vendors = Link aggregation =
Etherchannel in Cisco... so dont use trunk term for other vendors...

I dont think that you want to configure a trunk but a dot1q tagging between
Cisco and Foundry:

Cisco:
Int e0/10
Switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
Switchport mode trunk
Switchport trunk native vlan 100
No shutdown

Foundry:
VLAN100 will be sent untagged (Native) over port e10. Dont forget to add all
allowed VLANs as tagged traffic on e10 one by one (its a VLAN based approach
in comparison with Cisco port based approach):

vlan 100 name VLAN100 by port
untagged ethe 10
!
vlan x name VLANX by port
tagged ethe 10
!
vlan y name VLANY by port
tagged ethe 10
