Note that queue's weight do not implement priorities.  The rule is
quite simple : sum up all weight of all queues connected to one pipe
and then each queue will be assigned the following bandwidth :
	queuebw = totalbw * queueweight / totalweight

ALTQ does prioritize the traffic.  This means that packets with high
priority are placed before lower prioritized packets in the device
output FIFO.
