We need to consider whether there are other OS which only accept
the format with whitespace.

SL6 uses "net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1" format by default but can accept
either.

FreeBSD, NetBSD and MacOS X seem to need "net.inet.ip.forwarding=1"
format like us.

Does anyone have information about any specific other OS/distributions
they could mention here?

When we've got that information together, if it looks good I think
we could add it to the port, but it should also be fed upstream
(pull request is probably the easiest way).
