It appears to be a historic wart.  See my patches as previously referred.

Yes and no, in that order.  There are some kernel interaction problems 
that aren't yet resolved, and until we've got this sorted out, the 
remainder is effectively impossible to test.

In the first instance, -current will probably be required to use it, with
perhaps some patches available to update -stable, but I can't see -stable
adding this sort of (dangerous) support for some time.
