You could also run pppd on top of ssh, then put whatever you want ontop of
that sshd, and have it encrypted transparently. The idea goes back quite
some time, see http://www.feyrer.de/Texts/Own/secure-ip.txt (german
language, sorry, but I think you'll get the idea).

Of course you could as well try to port anyof the Linux filesystems to
NetBSD, or maybe even try to work on a compat layer for filesystems, to
make it easier to port Linux filesystems to NetBSD (thinking journaling
filesystems).
