The module/userland code won't compile under -current. I've ported it
however. major issues were:

	#include brain-damange. Bruce's include file philosophy
	continues to make FreeBSD progressivly more compile time
	incompatible with everything else, including other BSD's.

	Use of TAILQ's for handling ifaddr chains.

	VOP_LOCK() in lite2 takes three arguments.

At run-time it seems to panic quickly if logging is going on and
ipmon isn't there to read the log device.

Cheers,
Julian.
