I have done this..
I have checked in teh DPT driver into 2.2.x 
all the CHANGES (as opposed to new files) are conditional on DPTOPT.
I thought it would be the safest way to do it so close to release time.
so you need to add 
options DPTOPT to your config file as well as the 
more usual 
controller dpt0

the DPTOPT will go away after the release and when it's proven to work.
