I can reproduce that.

It looks like there’s some confusion inside pfctl about the network 
group. It ends up in pfctl_parser.c, append_addr_host(), and expects an 
AF_INET or AF_INET6, but instead gets an AF_LINK.

It’s probably related to 250994 or possibly 
d2568b024da283bd2b88a633eecfc9abf240b3d8.
Either way it’s pretty deep in a part of the pfctl code I don’t much 
like. I’ll try to poke at it some more over the weekend.

Best regards,
Kristof
