No there is not.  In my humble opinion it's a *really* bad idea to implement 
something that vulnarable to external attacks and buffer overflows inside the 
kernel.  The often claimed performance benefit can as easily be achieved with 
accept filters (see esp. accf_http(9)) and kqueue(9).  There is really no 
need to put this into the kernel.
