I missed the discussion about this change. Would you mind giving me
some background, or just a pointer to the discussion?
This seems to change the default (firewall_type="UNKNOWN") from
disallowing 127/8 on interfaces other than lo0 (i.e. it was
disallowed, but now it is allowed). I'm not sure that such a change
is appropriate for -STABLE.
Cheers,
