Hi Alexander,

> Changes:

Does  this  mean  IPFW_TABLES_MAX can now be safely set to arbitrarily
high number that would allow flexible numbering of tables? Arbitrarily
high  being 0xFFFFFFFF or some other nice large number that won't step
on my ideas :)

Again, nice set of long-needed additions. Thanks.

Cheers.
