Subject: port of MPPE (microsoft VPN encryption) to FreeBSD

I needed MPPE to tunnel into work and found:

http://www.moretonbay.com/vpn/releases/ppp-2.3.10-openssl-norc4-mppe.patch.gz

which applies to ppp-2.3.10 and adds MS CHAP v1 and v2 and MPPE to
pppd and the related kernel code.  Imagine my surprise when I found
that only the CHAP parts were portable and the MPPE was only available
for Linux!  So, in a process not unlike hammering a square peg into
a round hole, I got the kernel components working under FreeBSD 3.4.

Has anyone else already done this?  Is anyone mbuf-savvy interetested
in suggesting more elegant ways of supporting this code for BSD?  My
main purpose in sending this is to make sure any interested parties
pester me so I get around to sharing the results...
