Dear all,

I am going to set up a ruleset, in which for optimisation purposes I am 
going to use anchors with filters. Playing with it ended at, unfortunately 
table handling in anchors simply does not work. I am still trying to dig 
deep into the source, but I am not sure that I will find the solution. So, 
the basic example is here:

---
table <tab> { 10.1.1.1 }

anchor on xn0 {
 	pass quick from <tab> to any
}

block
---


And unfortunately, while someone might not use tables, the default rule 
optimizing code does, and if it generates a table to be used instead of 
many similar rules, it simply will not work.

This bug is present in OpenBSD also.

Thanks in advance,
