Okay, what do people think about the attached patch that is based on
Jason Helfman's work in a FreeBSD PR, but abstracts the transparent
proxying option (and the setsockopt() level, and the option's name)
so that it supports *both* the Linux IP_TRANSPARENT implementation and
*BSD's IP_BINDANY one, and leaves the door open for others in the future?

I'm about to commit this patch to the FreeBSD port of stunnel in
a couple of minutes; of course, it's up to Michal Trojnara to decide
whether to integrate it upstream in this or any other shape or form :)

G'luck,
Peter

This would easier understand fewer had omitted.

Subject: [PATCH] Abstract transparent proxying to also support IP_BINDANY.

The implementation is based on Jason Helfman's patch in
FreeBSD PR 153568, but is a bit more abstract to also allow
other transparent proxying implementations.
