--- Comment #6 from Kristof Provost <kp@freebsd.org> ---
Note that this no longer causes pf to panic. See
b2e0b24f76066fc52abe4330772c41996eca8bf8 (from Sat Dec 1 09:58:21 2018).

The underlying problem is still there, and if you do this you're going to h=
ave
some very unexpected and difficult to understand behaviour in pf, but at le=
ast
it doesn't panic any more.

I've looked at fixing this, but there's no error handling in many of the
group/interface name assignment paths and the locking .. well, either I
completely fail to understand it, or it's mostly wrong.
