Does the following answer your question ?

I've ported the INRIA stuff to -current a while ago. Patches are
available at ftp://frmug.org/pub/ipv6/ (patches to -current as of
beginning of April 1998). I haven't had time to make a release
recently based on a more recent -current, but will give it a try
soon (hopefully before next Monday).

Now regarding integrating this in "official" -current, that's
another matter entirely of course.

Regarding the crypto stuff, I believe someone in England has written
patches to implement the missing stuff in the INRIA implementation,
but haven't tried this yet. All I can say is that all the hooks are
there already.
