>Description:
With the following ipfilter config file:
---------- cut here
# Group 21 is outbound ACL for interface xl0
block out log quick on xl0 from any to any head 21

# Default is deny

#block out from any to any group 21
# This line works

block out log from any to any group 21
# With that line (same + 'log') ipf gets EEXIST when inserting the rule.

# Branch to group 211 for three hosts that require specific processing

skip 3 out from any to 10.10.0.142 group 21
skip 2 out from any to 10.10.0.140 group 21
skip 1 out from any to 10.10.0.154 group 21
skip 1 out from any to any group 21
block out log from any to any head 211 group 21
---------- cut here

when running 'ipf -I -Fa -f the_config_file', the following error
is produced:
  20:ioctl(add/insert rule): File exists

If the 'log' keyword is removed from line 20, then no error is
produced.

This problem is also reproduced with -CURRENT as of May 30th.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Cut/paste the ACL above to a file.
	Run ipf -I -Fa -f the_file
	Swap commenting-out of 'This line works/That line doesn't'
	Run ipf -I -Fa -f the_file again.
>Fix:

None known so far.
