>Description:
	Loading a PF ruleset containing a set loginterface line referencing a non existent interface
	ends by no rules loaded.
	The problem occurs here with clonable interfaces, I use pppd for internet connection and pppX
	devices are created on the fly as soon as pppd requests creation.
	PF is initialized earlier in the boot process and pppX aren't existing at this moment, so the existence
	of a line like :
	set loginterface ppp0
	makes pfctl fails in loading rules
>How-To-Repeat:
	Reference an interface that doesn't exist in set loginterface clause
>Fix:
