ISR G2 3900 and Port-channels

We have a 3900 series G2 running 15.0(1)M4. It seems there are alot of differences with the 15.0 code. I was intrigued by the ability to do a port-channel on the router instead of having to use something like HSRP or GLBP for HA.  The router is going to be a sip gateway only so I wanted to give it dual links to our core switches for extra protection. I configured the device in the following way and to my surprise it works fine. Whats scary is I would think this would cause a loop because I did not have a port-channel configured on the other side and on the router if I do a show etherchanel summary nothing is present.  Any ideas?
