from src/UPDATING:

20070702:
      The packet filter (pf) code has been updated to OpenBSD 4.1 Please
      note the changed syntax - keep state is now on by default.  Also
      note the fact that ftp-proxy(8) has been changed from bottom up and
      has been moved from libexec to usr/sbin.  Changes in the ALTQ
      handling also affect users of IPFW's ALTQ capabilities.

I'm afraid it hasn't made it's way to the Release notes, yet.

The ftp-proxy(8) manpage provides configuration examples and details.
