The crypto-api only appears in the late 2.5 series, and
still seems to conflict with the FreeSWAN 1.99; also,
if you are installing your own crypto-api patches on a
2.4 kernel, you will get the same problem if you select
the crypto-api menu ipsec option and then try to build
with FreeSWAN "make menugo".
I've not had time yet to work out how to get FS to use
kernel crypto/ipsec or even to read up on how they
are related.
