 I've seen this since at least as early as June 3rd. Haven't said anything
 because I've not had time to see if there was already a fix, or at least
 the topic had been brought up.
 
 Maybe we're doing something wrong; ipf + ipnat not working at all sounds
 like something that'd get noticed real quick. Oh yeah, ipnat:
 
 # ipnat -l
 /dev/ipnat: open: Device not configured
 # grep IPFILTER /sys/i386/conf/LIMBO
 options         IPFILTER
 options         IPFILTER_LOG
 
 Same error message as the author of the send-pr above reports. Any ideas?
