We believe the patch provides generally useful functionality in KAME

We understand that some would not want to use it, and appreciate the
desire to make the default behavior prohibit it until the issue of
virtual interface demuxing is addressed (though we do have a solution,
it appears to be undesired by KAME as a 'layer violation'. we beleive
that examining a packet after it is decapsulated, to determine
its virtual interface number, is both appropriate and compliant with the
layering  principle, though).
