I stand by my initial assessment that VNET is not sufficiently stable in 
stable/11 to encourage its use there.
There are still issues with IPSec, even in head. See 
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D13017 for some more information on that.
Those issues are being addressed in head, but I do not expect VNET to 
ever become robust in 11.
