Is ALTQ part of 6.0 base system

Reading the pf firewall man pages says to use ALTQ with PF a
custom kernel has to be complied with the ALTQ options included.

This seems to indicate that ALTQ is only available when
used with the pf firewall.

ALTQ used to be available as a port so it could be used
stand-a-lone.

Can ALTQ support be compiled into a custom kernel and be
used stand-a-lone?
