If ipfw is compiled in the kernel and it defaults to deny all, then
you need to add rules for ipfw to allow connections to and from
localhost (127.0.0.1 and port 3128). Otherwise ipfw well drop 'pf rdr
traffic'.

# ipfw add allow tcp from $lan_net to 127.0.0.1 3128
# ipfw add allow tcp from 127.0.0.1 3128 to $lan_net

Put the rules before any anti spoofing rules in ipfw.
