Asynchronous low power listening similar to the behavior of B-MAC has been
introduced for the CC2420 radio in TinyOS 2.x.  This LPL CC2420 stack is not
B-MAC or X-MAC, by the way.  The 'experimental' version is still located in
tos/chips/cc2420_lpl, but a more reliable and robust version can be found in
tinyos-2.x-contrib/rincon/tos/chips/cc2420_lpl.  That version is going to
get a few more features before getting put back into the baseline.

Actually, B-MAC *is* in there, because the heart of B-MAC is the
flexible control interfaces to the radio, not exact method of preamble
sampling.  The preamble sampling, as per the original publication, can
be optimized in numerous ways and still be B-MAC, including sending
cyclical packets as is done in TinyOS 2.x (see Section 8 of the B-MAC
publication).
