For #1, there's a patchset for FreeBSD, which ought to largely apply to 
NetBSD's sys/netinet/in_pcb.c as well:

  http://people.freebsd.org/~bz/20110313-01-rfc6056.diff

For #2, I seem to see something called SO_TIMESTAMP & SO_OTIMESTAMP in TRUNK of 
sys/netinet/udp_usrreq.c.  Perhaps someone already implemented it?
