How about a patch which puts the "klips" patches on the
buildroot.uclibc.org server?
(http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/buildroot-sources/)


Then we can get rid of it in the trunk.
Every single BSP for a linux kernel version will otherwise
add 1,8 MB openswan patch to the trunk.
Even one of them is too much IMO.

The other patches are really minimal.
