    The last messages I saw in the archives about kern/73129 indicated
    that it was going to be fixed "shortly"

    (73129 is the "IPFW misbehavior in RELENG_5 thread" -- it's no longer
    possible to use ipfw fwd to perform policy routing).

    This bug is on my critical path for getting my network entirely swapped
    over to 5.3 (b/c it breaks transparent proxying and other nifty games).
    Could I beg Andre or someone to commit a fix that restores the old
    behavior?

    (Barring that, has anyone patched it in their own system, and if so,
    would you mind sending me the patch? I dislike running custom kernel
    code on these machines, but I'm happy to do so to get things working. :)

    Many thanks,

      -Dave
