Thanks! However, there is one thing I was always wondering about:
Why are there two physical locations of these files? I understand that
kernel stuff should be kept under /usr/src/sys but wouldn't it be a
good idea to just symlink files in sys/contrib/ipfilter/netinet/ to
../../../contrib/ipfilter/? I do this in my own /usr/src and it has
the nice side effect that when I want to play with a different version
of ipfilter I only have to replace the /usr/src/contrib/ipfilter
directory with the other one...
