As per the announcement(s), there is, of course, no explanation in LINT either. Are IPFIREWALL & IPFW2 mutually exclusive? Does IPFW2 "depend on" specification of IPFIREWALL? Do options like IPDIVERT, IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE & other knobs apply to IPFIREWALL as well? In looking over the kernel source(s), it appears that IPFW2 might "trump" IPFIREWALL & therefore IPFIREWALL becomes a "don't care" if IPFW2 is specified. Is this correct?
