	NOTE: this is independent from the merging issues.

	Could I hear about the technical reasons for the above "rumor"?
	Could someone send me the details of what you felt?
	I would like to fix that ASAP, if it really is a technical issues.
	We are trying to catch up to latest IPv6 specs (I believe KAME is
	most aggressive in this point), making coments to where specs seems
	to be wrong, and so forth.  We really are putting our 7x24 hours:-)
	to KAME.

	If it is packaging issues, I would like to state the following for
	KAME 2.2.7 kit:
	- we intentionally NOT overwriting existing tools,
	  like /usr/bin/ftp.  This surprises people too much, especially
	  in multiuser installations.
	- we are trying NOT to require "make World" for installation.
	  therefore, we do not use /usr/src tree for this.
	It can be changed for KAME 3.0, of course.

	If it is irrelevant for current@freebsd, plese reply me personally.
