>Description:
Netgraph has a permanent node for every Ethernet interface but
none for loopback.  Loopback would be desirable for those who
wish to use laptops, or to simulate traffic through new nodes
without using an actualy interface.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Add netgraph code to if_loop.c and create an ng_loop.h file in
the sys/netgraph directory.

I will have a patch for this in a week or so.
