vtun has broken encryption support that makes it unsuitable for main
(and for a secure multi-cluster support), see MIR review in bug 412059.

The workaround proposal for karmic is to ship a working but unsupported
multi-cluster mode, by suggesting vtun usage in eucalyptus and leaving
it in universe. There is no time left to migrate from using vtun to
openvpn for proper layer-2 encrypted tunneling.

For karmic+1 this would be revisited so that multi-cluster capabilities
are fully supported in main, by removing eucalyptus dependency on vtun
and switching to openvpn or an IPsec implementation.
