>From the ipfw manpage:
USING IPFW2 IN FreeBSD-STABLE
     ipfw2 is standard in FreeBSD CURRENT, whereas FreeBSD STABLE still uses
     ipfw1 unless the kernel is compiled with options IPFW2, and /sbin/ipfw
     and /usr/lib/libalias are recompiled with -DIPFW2 and reinstalled (the
     same effect can be achieved by adding IPFW2=TRUE to /etc/make.conf before
     a buildworld).


HTH,
Nicolas
