Hmm... with these default settings from defaults/rc.conf:

    ipfilter_program="/sbin/ipf -Fa -f"
    ipfs_flags=""
    ipfs_program="/sbin/ipfs"

these kind of expressions in /etc/rc.network:

    ${ipfilter_program:-/sbin/ipf -y}
    ${ipfs_program:-/sbin/ipfs -R} ${ipfs_flags}

will evaluate to:

    /sbin/ipf -Fa -f
    /sbin/ipfs

and that's not what is intended in these cases I think.

Furthermore I see these kind of expressions for ipfilter-related stuff
preceded by 'eval' a lot. That seems unnecessary to me.

Let me see if I can cleanup and test this stuff this weekend, the
ipfilter_program and ipnat_program variables for example are the only
*_program variables in defaults/rc.conf to have options included :-(.
