While it requires a serious paradigm shift, Wackamole
(http://www.backhand.org/wackamole/) provides N:M IP redundancy on *BSD

And its unmaintanied and does not compile on FreeBSD 5.x.
It isn't unmaintained... what makes you think it is unmaintained?
Compiles fine on my boxen. (4.11, 4-stable, 5.2.1, 5.3-RELEASE-p5)
It has a dependency on Spread (which I think is in ports somewhere). It's running in production on a few 5.3 boxes that I know of, likely many more that I don't.
