How about putting bpf functionality into install-kernel, but not
into the GENERIC kernel?

If the install required the use of dhcp, sysinstall should yell
about having to rebuild the kernel with bpf-device in.

On the other hand, the security-concerned ISPs and others can
rebuild their kernels to remove the bpf (they probably rebuild
them anyway for other reasons, or should do that anyway).
