Subject: SYN flooding fax for BSDI -- has it been applied to NetBSD?

I see BSDI displaying a patch that adds TCP SYN cache, thereby
allowing life to continue fairly normally during a SYN flood attack.
Has anyone tried applying this patch to NetBSD 1.2? It seems as
though it ought to be relatively easy to do, for a kernel hacker anyway!
IF ti has been done for NetBSD, is there a way to get it without using
the -current source tree?
