[greater-than] From what I've read of the code, it seems close to KAME 
and BSD style, and could actually get merged. With a little bit more 
work, the userland could slot into XORP's BGP implementation. Of course, 
all this takes time and effort, however I believe Ayame was a working 
example of MPLS in NetBSD, so it's as good a place to start as any.

cheers
