Well, this turned out to be a doozy...
After recompiling the kernel a couple of times, I began to trace through
firewall rules using ipfw -at list. After looking at the list 10 times, I
noticed the divert command was using the wrong interface. So I looked at
/etc/rc.conf and all seemed ok. I checked /etc/defaults/rc.conf and I noticed
my custom script was assigning the interface from the defaults/rc.conf! This
didn't happen in 3.5, but it only took a minor edit to fix in 4.1-STABLE.
I appreciate your help on this. Now I can at least sleep.
