PR, but I had already done this when ru pointed out the PR.

Avoid listing expired dynamic rules unless the (new) -e option was specified.
If specific rule numbers were listed on the command line, and the -d flag was
specified, only list dynamic rules that match the specified rule numbers.
Try to partly clean up the bleeding mess this file has become. If there is
any justice in this world, the responsible parties (you know who you are!)
should expect to wake up one morning with a horse's head in their bed. The
code still looks like spaghetti, but at least now it's *properly intented*
spaghetti (hmm? did somebody say "tagliatelle"?).

address is configured on a interface. This is useful for routers with
dynamic interfaces. It is now possible to say:
0100 allow tcp from any to any established
0200 skipto 1000 tcp from any to any
0300 allow ip from any to any
1000 allow tcp from 1.2.3.4 to me 22
1010 deny tcp from any to me 22
1020 allow tcp from any to any
and not have to worry about the behaviour if dynamic interfaces configure
new IP numbers later on.
The check is semi expensive (traverses the interface address list)
so it should be protected as in the above example if high performance
is a requirement.
reserved and now allocated TCP flags in incoming packets. This patch
stops overloading those bits in the IP firewall rules, and moves
colliding flags to a seperate field, ipflg. The IPFW userland
management tool, ipfw(8), is updated to reflect this change. New TCP
flags related to ECN are now included in tcp.h for reference, although
we don't currently implement TCP+ECN.
o To use this fix without completely rebuilding, it is sufficient to copy
ip_fw.h and tcp.h into your appropriate include directory, then rebuild
the ipfw kernel module, and ipfw tool, and install both. Note that a
mismatch between module and userland tool will result in incorrect
installation of firewall rules that may have unexpected effects. This
is an MFC candidate, following shakedown. This bug does not appear
to affect ipfilter.
