MPPC for Netgraph: Isn't it time?

Everyone:

Just built a kernel today, and realized that for years I have had 
to integrate MPPC compression/encryption (see man page ng_mppc(4)) 
for PPP/L2TP/PPTP manually, even though the HiFn patent has long 
since expired and there's no reason not to include the files in the 
FreeBSD code base. Could a committer with access to that part of 
the tree please import the files mppc.h, mppcc.c, and mppcd.c into 
/sys/net so there's no need to find and fetch them every time?
