Hello Martin,

first off, thank you for your interest in pf - more hands are greatly 
appreciated!

On the $subj, I'm not sure what the added benefit of relayd in base is.  
Having it in ports makes it easier to pull in new features/releases.  The same 
could be said for (t)ftp-proxy, but it was decided that ftp NAT support is a 
*basic* function of any firewall and therefore should be in the base system.

Can you share your reasons for wanting it in base as opposed to ports?

On the nitpicking side of things - from a quick glance:  The build of 
relayd/ctl should probably be conditional on WITHOUT_PF.

Thanks,
  Max
