You most certainly can nest lists. It works in several examples above. For some reason--and I would like to know that reason--it doesn't work in line #16. Please help.

That's a well-known problem in the pfctl-parser.  Patches have been 
proposed but never made it to the tree - afaik.  Look in the archives of 
this and the original ML for reasons and detailed discussion.

In other words, using CIDR blocks in nested lists doesn't work? I'll research that. I hope there's a work-around!
Thanks,
