>Description:
	http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/networking.html#BPF-NOT-CONFIGURED
	
	This document states: 'pseudo-device bpfilter' is required in
	the kernel configuration. However bpf(4) states that the
	required line is: 'pseudo-device bpf' and this is supported by
	LINT. Its confusing to have multiple options, even if both of
	them work.
