In reading the notes in the cvs-all & stable lists regarding
the IPFW2, it isn't clear (well to me :) how to properly
specify the new code.  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?

Thanks,
