Bug #1121

Script failure checking kernel IPFILTER support
0%
Description
The script /etc/rc.d/ipfilter attempts to load the ipl module even if this
was compiled into the kernel. Apparently "ipl" can't be used as a modname
argument for kldstat to give the desired result. I'm currently using a
workaround as shown below, works for both the generic and the customized
kernel.
Regards,
Frank Josellis

Thanks. I think it would be better if we had a neutral module name
without version number for ipfilter too (in case someone feels like
updating it some day). Can you test if the following patch works works
for you?

I'll commit it tomorrow if no one objects.
