Subject: ipfw -q <file> does not work

I have successfully set up ipfw now but encountered some odd behaviour
when I tried using the -q option of ipfw with a filename.

this works:
ipfw -q <any command>

and this works:
ipfw <filename>

but this:
ipfw -q <filename>

results in:  
ipfw: error: Bad arguments

which is followed by the usage info as printed by the "ipfw" command.
This was brough to my attention when I tried using firewall_quiet="YES"
in rc.conf.

Is there some reason these two options are not compatible?
