 You must have miss-read the problem description.
 
 The ipfw loadable module is useless as it's currently distributed
 with the FBSD operation system software.
 You need to correctly compile it with all the options and make it
 part of the new 5.2 version of FBSD
 when you release the next stable production 5.2 release.
 
 How does telling me to do my own kernel compile including IPFW fix
 this problem?
 This does not fix the problem for all the other users of the FBSD
 software.
 
 It has to be fixed at your end an made part of the next software
 release.
