[pf4freebsd] FYI: Build on -current

Hello,

  if you tried to build version 2.00 on a recent -current box (>
501114, that is) you might already know that it is broken. The
problems come from ongoing work on tcp hostcache and ip fastforward.

  Fixes for the port are on the way and we might release a new version
to bring it to the tarball install as well, but allow us some time. If
you need to build it from tarball, you can apply files/patch-ac from
the ports directory.

  Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's a hard job to maintain
something really _in_kernel as third-party source :( Take a look at
the #ifdef's in ipfilter, if you want proof.
