I don't mind that sort of thing happening on the trunk, in -current,
in fact it's probably a good move in the long run as ipfilter won't get
smaller. It just complicates everything and makes FreeBSD 4.4 (and later)
different enough from an IPFilter user perspective that it may as well be
FreeBSD 5.0. It would be nice for all who'll have to deal with this if
those changes could be undone on the RELENG_4 branch. Then again, if there
will be _no_ 4.4, no problem, but I suspect that won't be the case!
