This is easily circumvented by making shure that the first rule is

ipfw add 10 .....
like:
ipfw add count ip4 from any to any via vlan126
	(vlan126 is my outside connection)
And then you are home free.

I actually use this to also separate diffent types of block by injecting:
ipfw add <blocknumber> count ip from any to any

like:
03000 713812041 425643462848 count ip from any to any
03010         0            0 deny ip6 from fc00::/7 to any via vlan126

And the 3000 block contains all antispoofing and likes.
