Is there any interest in putting the DEC screend stuff into
the standard kernel?  I've been using it since 1.1.5.1 and
I find it easier to use and better than ipfirewall.

Hacking it in is pretty simple.  The only biggish deal is
that ipintr() has to be broken into two parts, to support
filtering of all packets, not just the forwarded packets.
This means an extra function call for each packet, whether
screening is enabled or not.

It's copyright Digital Equipment, so there may be a problem
there.
