OK, reread what you were asking.  ipfw -a l gives about three screens of
firewall statements (allow this, deny that) and ends with deny all (?).  I
grepped for udp and it looks like the firewall statements I added to
rc.firewall are not being honored.  I also created /etc/ip.rules and put
those two statements in there, too, exactly as in rc.firewall (because
/etc/defaults/rc.conf made reference to that file).

Any ideas?
