No. IPfilter's filtering engine always runs in the kernel.

By "integrated" I mean that the kernel part is in the kernel source, and the
configuration etc. programs are in the base.tar.gz / (or usr.bin/, for the
sources). You dont need to fetch it from Australia, figure out how to 
integrate it into NetBSD, and patch kernels etc.
