 IPSEC can not coexist

 FreeBSD release 5.4 to 6.0 exists serious bugs,
 when IPSEC and MAC configured togethor (the system will crash).
 
 The reason is follows:
 277 m_move_pkthdr(struct mbuf *to, struct mbuf *from)
 278 {
 279 
 280 #if 0
 281         /* see below for why these are not enabled */
 282         M_ASSERTPKTHDR(to);
 283         /* Note: with MAC, this may not be a good assertion. */
 284         KASSERT(SLIST_EMPTY(&to->m_pkthdr.tags),
 285             ("m_move_pkthdr: to has tags"));
 286 #endif
 287 #ifdef MAC
 288         /*
 289          * XXXMAC: It could be this should also occur for non-MAC?
 290          */
 291         if (to->m_flags & M_PKTHDR)
 292                 m_tag_delete_chain(to, NULL);
 293 #endif
 294         to->m_flags = (from->m_flags & M_COPYFLAGS) | (to->m_flags & M_EXT);
 295         if ((to->m_flags & M_EXT) == 0)
 296                 to->m_data = to->m_pktdat;
 297         to->m_pkthdr = from->m_pkthdr;          /* especially tags */
 298         SLIST_INIT(&from->m_pkthdr.tags);       /* purge tags from src */
 299         from->m_flags &= ~M_PKTHDR;
 300 }
 What if on line 292, the mbufs to and from point to the same tag list?
 
 The method to resolve:
 1ˇ˘simply comments out line 292
 2ˇ˘compare if mbufs to and from point to the same tag list
