Hello Marcin,

   The code from Mitre is a reference implementation that was written
quite a while ago.  It has not kept up with improvements in hardware 
and makes some poor assumptions about the underlying system.  It could
use some update, but I do not know the correct path to get these 
committed anywhere.  In any case, if I recall correctly, it is 
entirely in user space, and may be best tracked in the ports collection.

Jeff
