Every commit you make to ipfw causes it so that a newer kernel cannot be
used with a week old userland (and vice-versa).  With the poor shape of
-CURRENT this makes it very hard to use -CURRENT as one cannot even test
a new kernel for usability before irreversabily updating world.

Could you *please* queue up your changes over a longer period of time and
hold off any more IPFW commits for a while?
