It is. :-)

Be glad, then: I already noticed this and fixed it. When I'm confident
my modified if_tun.[ch] are stable, I'll send-pr 'em. Anyone who wants
is welcome to mail me privately asking for a copy, and I'll send the
then-current version....
I also have to write a tun(4) manpage, especially since I've added
significant functionality.
