However minor the issue seems, I think it warrants a PR, if at least so the entry is added for the next revision of 8.4-RELEASE. Regarding -STABLE, while I respect your decision to be conservative and run -RELEASE, I'd like to point out we've not run into any problem here, in over 3 years with ~40 firewall boxes.
