You do not really need this patch to run TCP-MD5 with INET6.

TCP-MD5 with INTE6 is in HEAD already, I am not sure if it's my 50
pending MFCs or if it's in RELENG_7 (and with that 7.1-R) already.


You can find a description what the patch does here:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2008-September/019492.html

And it's something for both v4 and v6 that hasn't been there the last
years for v4 ...
