  I'd like to hear from Rene:

  1) why this is necessary?		(L2TP with win2k is an answer,
					 but not a very good one)

  2) why Debian can't enable it as they see fit? (and therefore take
     responsibility for the issue!)

  3) if two kernel packages might be more appropriate.

  We have no test cases for transport-mode NAT-T. So, before it was
turned on, we'd need test cases for it to be written.
