If the updates to IPFilter are "security or critical fixes," they will
be. That is, extra features, performance enhancements, or upgrading
for the sake of upgrading will not happen in RELENG_4_6. Even if there
is a critical fix, I would expect that the bug would be fixed directly
in the existing code rather than import a whole new version just to
get one bugfix.
