It's in up-coming 9.2-R (and present 9.2-* snapshots leading up to 9.2-R).
You can snatch a copy of the code by installing sysutils/bsdconfig from the
ports tree.
However, the port is marked (correctly-so) as requiring FreeBSD 9.0 or higher.
But don't let that stop you... the only reason it's marked as requiring 9.0 is
because 9.0 brings in a new dialog(1) implementation.
However, if you're interested in the TCP validation code... that will work on
any release. It's only the dialog(1) stuff that won't work on 8.x or older.
Luckily, it'll be pretty easy to avoid the land-mines. All functions starting
with f_dialog_* should be avoided on 8.x or older.
So here's the latest package to download (in case you're unsuccessful in
getting the port to behave -- afterall, it may just balk at you for not running
9.x):
fetch
http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/bsdconfig/bsdconfig-0.9.0.tbz
That's a FreeBSD package. You can download it and say (as root):
pkg_add bsdconfig-0.9.0.tbz
Just be forewarned (again), on 8.x or older, executing "bsdconfig" will have
widely unexpected results (it won't eat your homework, but it may or may not
actually *run*).
However, doing the above 2-step (fetch & pkg_add) will bring in the files
you're looking for and give you the functionality you're wanting on 8.x.

P.S. I really *can't* make the dialog(1) stuff backward compatible with 8.x's
(or any older's) version of dialog(1). The new `cdialog' variant that was
brought into 9.x to replace the aging dialog(1)/libdialog pair is has a *lot*
of functionality that I depend on. It could potentially take months to make
bsdconfig *fully* backward compatible with 8.x. For now, it's safe if you just
use the libraries and avoid any/all functions beginning with "f_dialog_".
