Not at the moment. Do you have a spec for this (I assume there is an RFC
on stuffing IP into appletalk). If its not too hard it should be possible
to add it to the kernel. We do IP over AX.25, IP over NetROM and IP over IP
tunnels already.

If its just a take an IP datagram wrap it up this way and stuff it down
a DDP connection type scheme its probably possible for someone to know
up the required bits.
