The single IP limitation may be a problem in some locations..

Did not find anything about a possible MFC either. glebius@ is cc'd, 
perhaps he can add something, but based on 
http://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/UPDATING, I don't think it's been 
MFCd (there's a primer for the new carp in current's UPDATING)\
