Yes, RFC 4605 is what we have in mind.
Unfortunately we cannot give any estimate when it will be
implemented due to our (very) limited resources.

FYI, I just replaced the TODO entry with a Bugzilla entry:
http://www.xorp.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=700

You can add yourself to the CC list for that entry so you will get
automated email notifications whenever there is any change in the
status.
