Within the next day, to be in the tree in time for the feature freeze, most
of my changes to IPFW in 4.0 will be committed to 3.2. IPFW's binary
compatibility _will_ be broken, and it's a smart idea to make world and
a new kernel both.
__FreeBSD_version is going to be bumped up to 320002, and you'll probably
also want to update your pidentd port afterwards (greatly simplified
code; one part of these changes includes code to creat the
net.inet.{tcp,udp}.getcred sysctls to get info onsocket credentials
on a running system. This eliminates pidentd race conditions which
previously could ocur in the kvm(3)-using code.)
At the very least, please make sure to make a new kernel and modules, and
make includes before recompiling/reinstalling src/sbin/ipfw/.
