Last time I got any kind of reply from luigi regarding this it was about his attempt to get it into 4.5. However nothing has happened since (except for this coming up in -ipfw every once in a while). If you look at the PR you'll see that the obvious fix exposes a kernel panic bug (which I also sent a patch for). I don't know if my patch is ok or not (I know I'm using it), but either way, this PR should have been closed long ago. -- Dan Pelleg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
