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,
