You don't have "options INET6" in your kernel config, but the pf module 
assumes that it is there.  You can either built pf into the kernel (since you 
are building a custom kernel anyway), rebuild the module without that 
assumption (see the module's Makefile) or you can reenable "options INET6" in 
the kernel.

The ENOENT error returned from kldload is a bit misleading, though.
