If you specify "password" options for a BGP peer, it will enable TCP_MD5. Of course in FreeBSD it's a bit clumsy and you have to use setkey(8) to set the keys.

I mentioned December 29, sorry if that wasn't explicit enough, I didn't have the svn revision close to hand. Is r226260 the MFC that you're referring to? The log says, "Skip TCP_SIGNATURE calculation for INP_TIMEWAIT case." If so, that happened in October so we're well past that in our version of -stable. I'll be working on the various suggestions (thanks everyone for them, most helpful!) and report back on what works.
