Well you are sort-of right ... look at -current and it's there.
Patches for stable are at http://www.ambrisko.com/doug/an.patch.wep3
for the latest greatest stuff.

Several people have this code in use for a while.  I've been collecting
patches and posting diff's at my website and sending announces to mobile.
With the latest diff's I haven't heard of any new wishes or problems.

Archie just commited the patches to -current and should MFC fairly soon.

BTW I just remembered a bug in that you can't do the ancontrol stuff
unless you ifconfig the interface.  I need to look at this.  I forgot 
about it a long time ago when I just worked around it so it doesn't
bite me .. except when I just setup a machine.
