I believe the main reason FAST_IPSEC came to be is support for crypto
hardware.

However, FAST_IPSEC cannot replace KAME IPsec. FAST_IPSEC is IPv4-only
whereas KAME is IPv6 with its required IPsec abilities "back-ported"
into the IPv4 stack.

It would be really, really nice to get this bug out of KAME IPsec
before 5.2.1, but if 5.2 didn't wait...
