Dummynet is part of (or configured via) ipfw, so you can just add in an
identical 'count' ipfw rule...

It would be handy if we could specify dummynet pipes as an interface, to
prevent doubling up on ipfw rules (some dummynet implementations may have
several ipfw rules feeding into a single pipe). eg:

count ip from any to any via pipe 1

Thoughts? (I'm a bad C coder at best, and certainly not anywhere near good
enough for kernel hacking :) )

Cheers.
