What version has something else? Several people who know what they are
talking about have said here that the Linux kernel has not ever used a
BSD derived networking stack. It is possible that someone ported over a
version of it, but it was never in the standard distribution.

Check out http://ps.cus.umist.ac.uk/~rhw/kernel.versions.html for the
kernel history.
