I am able to use pf successfully with all four patches applied.  Thanks
for your help.  I didn't do a huge amount of testing, but was able to
pass tens of megabytes of traffic through it w/o issues...  I didn't
try which of them made the panic go away, but I hope they get committed
before 9.0-R.

Thanks again.
