I've written a pseudo-interface designed for making routing decisiions
based on ip_src, which is what I understand this to be asking for.
There's a version of it in ftp.rodents.montreal.qc.ca:/mouse/misc/srt/;
I'm not sure which version of NetBSD it's for. It's definitely more
recent than 1.4T, since it talks about patching sys/conf/majors, but I
don't find anything obvious indicating whether it's for 2.0, 3.0, or
3.1 (it's unlikely but possible it's for -current, but, if so, it's for
-current a year or so old - check the files' dates).
