I'm on record as saying I think we should axe netgraph completely,
rather than updating it.  NetBSD and OpenBSD do no have netgraph
and they have working ppp, pppoe, and atm, so clearly netgraph is
not required for ppp, pppoe, and atm.  In fact, the big problem
I have with having netgraph in our system is then unsuspecting
newbies might think they have to use it to do their networking work.
I've never met anyone who tried to used netgraph who didn't curse its
very existence.
