Commit bc74b0c8af17458ecae77f725e507ab5fd100105 added proper hmac sha384 and sha512 variants with truncation lengths of 192 and 256 respectively, per RFC4868:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4868.txt
The already-present hmac sha256 variant was left as-is, with a truncation length of 96 bits, per an earlier draft of the RFC, as I understand it (it predates 2.6.12-rc2, didn't look further back). This doesn't play well out of the box with various other ipsec devices that properly implement the current RFC value of 128-bit truncation for hmac sha256. Easy fix, assuming there's not some reason I'm not clued into about why this might have intentionally been left as-is.
