security.jail.param.ip4.saddrsel: Do (not) use IPv4 source address selection 
rather than the primary jail IPv4 address.


Is this tunable only available when VIMAGE jails are built? The 8.1-RELEASE 
Release Notes suggest it is for VIMAGE jail(8) containers, while 7.3-RELEASE 
Release Notes suggest that it is available for the entire jail(8) subsystem 
as 'security.jail.ip4_saddrsel', a different OID.


Don't use the systctl; the param tree only tells you which options are
available;  ip4.saddrsel is an option to the jail -c|-m command.
