Re: [TEST] netgraph callout interface

  The patch at 

	http://people.freebsd.org/~glebius/totest/netgraph_callout

has been updated. Now it covers the following nodes:

	ng_bridge.c
	ng_l2tp.c
	ng_lmi.c
	ng_pppoe.c
	ng_pptpgre.c

One more time I ask for testing. The patch can be applied both to HEAD
and RELENG_5.
