I am.

What about integrating this in the source tree? Is there a good reason
why these are pending patches?

Other question: In order to get through a gateway that won't do any
multicast routing (ie: anything getting on one side should go on the
other one), do I really need to run pimd? Coulnd't I just do some packet
forwarding using IPFilter?

Something like
pass in on fxp0 to fxp1 from any to 224.0.0.0/3  
pass in on fxp1 to fxp0 from any to 224.0.0.0/3
