okay ... after ripping off our hair for some days we finnally discovered the
real problem. It is a dirty hack to bring PFIL_HOOKS definition to pfil.h in
case you have IPFILTER definition. I'll send-pr about it, but would like you
to test something first:

get clean kernelsources and add the following to bridge.c:
Before the first include (<sys/param.h>):
> #ifndef KLD_MODULE
> #include "opt_pfil_hooks.h"
> #endif

Then build your kernel with:
options BRIDGE            #you need it built in!
options PFIL_HOOKS

and try again to get pf running. Remember to set net.link.ether.bridge_ipf:
1 This time it should at least see some packets ... or get a panic, not sure
about it ;)

Thank you for your help.
