If that works, I suspect the code is very much worth having as an optional component to NetBSD, though the other items I mentioned are necessary for production use.
I have a couple of Cisco routers sitting idle here, and am on the verge of having a machine I can run NetBSD on to test them against... In particular, it's a Xen box, with virtual interfaces glued to the external one via a bridge(4). When I get a moment, maybe this week, I'm going to clone my old 4.0RC2 domU and upgrade it to -current, then I'll merge in Mihai's patches and have a play!
