He probably means that the references to -STABLE in the manpage needs to be changed to say 4.x instead (and the references to -CURRENT probably should say 5.x instead), since when 5.3 becomes stable it will no longer be true that -STABLE uses IPFW as default (which is what the manpage says.) -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
