Here's your problem then.

This is *NOT* the way to install IP Filter on a FreeBSD system.
You should only upgrade parts of the base system using the process
documented and recommended in ``/usr/src/UPDATING''.

Start over with a clean /usr/src and /usr/obj tree and read the file
``/usr/src/UPDATING'' for instructions about upgrading from source.
