Heck. I missed the netgraph message format change. Recompiling nghook,
ngctl and ppp fixed /this/ part, so PR kern/71424 is void, my netgraph

netgraph-dependent stuff doesn't list a libnetgraph dependency in its
Makefile or depend information and hence the system drifts apart.


The following issue remains though, just checked:
