Yes, please.

It looks like packetdrill is large enough that it should remain out
of tree, and installed via ports. Also, packetdrill is GPLv2, which
is another reason to not import the code.
What I did for the crypto tests (which use python), was to only run
them if the necessary binaries are installed, and skip them if not
present.
