Tunnel support for MROUTING was removed several FreeBSD releases ago.

We followed OpenBSD with this change because DVMRP's older, naive 
IP-in-IP encapsulation mechanism doesn't offer any benefit, and can't be 
administered. Also, PIM doesn't use it, and PIM is now the industry 
standard.

thanks,
BMS
