Considering our requirement for the ability to perform IKE exchanges over
localhost I thought I would take a quick look at the ipsec-tools sources and
see if anything jumped out at me.  After taking a look I think I have found a
solution which should work.

I've hacked up a simple proof of concept patch (see next mail) which attempts
to demonstrate the solution.  It is backed against the sources from the
ipsec-tools-0.6.2-6 RPM and works for the simple testing I have done.  I
wouldn't consider this patch ready for prime time but I wanted to throw it out
on the list to help foster discussion and move things along.
