This happens because the L2TP packets are tagged with an IPSEC-flag for
later use by ipfw, and this flag is passed to the packets coming from
ng0. Thats done by the netgraph under control of mpd, or better: mpd
does nothing to clear this flag.

With net.inet.ipsec.filtertunnel=1 you can ignore this IPSEC-flag but
only global for all interfaces in the system. Thats probably not what
you want, especially not for the real hardware interface the
IPSEC-tunnel is going through.

I think L2TP under control of mpd should work independent of the
existence of an IPSEC-tunnel and therefore clear this flag:

This patch for the l2tp netgraph node does the job and you can use pf on
the ng0 interface without any restrections.
