At least the nanospin patch won't apply cleanly against the pktgen
version currently in mainline.  I'm reworking it anyway since it's
actually buggy -- give me a day or two and I'll post updated patches
against 2.6 as well as Robert's devel version.

(See ftp://robur.slu.se/pub/Linux/net-development/pktgen-testing/ for
Robert's devel versions.)
