I have made another major progress on this (again 2 thumbs up for 
Aggelos for helping). I tested filtering (block and pass rules), nat and 
port forwarding (rdr rules). All of that seems to work fine in my tests. 
I have only tested the single features, not in combination, though.

What I have not tested at all until now it ALTQ and DF's fairq extension.

Also state keeping is working (and is now default, not due to my 
decision but it became default in OBSD 4.1 afaict). So this is ready now 
for "public" testing. I would appreciate very much if people with some 
sophisticated setup or in-depth pf knowledge could test and give some 
feedback.

Be aware that this still pukes out tons of debugging info (propably not 
useful to anyone but me) on the sys console. I will remove those step by 
step now.

Finally also be aware that my branch is still based on master from May 
or so. I haven't rebased it yet. Will do that some time soon.
