wireguard-go is in pkgsrc/net/wireguard-go.
However it seems that it does not handle NetBSD's tun(4) device properly.

I have just added my userspace-networking only package as
pkgsrc/net/tailscale.

You can connect tailscale.com as follows:

(1) Install pkgsrc/net/tailscale
(2) Copy /usr/pkg/share/examples/rc.d/tailscaled under /etc/rc.d
(3) Add tailscaled=YES in /etc/rc.conf
(4) Run `service tailscaled start`
(5) Run `tailscale up` as root and get URI of login.tailscale.com
(6) Login tailscale.com with the URI

I am using SSH and ping between tailscale clients.
I have no idea about the other functionalities.

Thank you.
