Description spock 2000-07-09 06:40:00 UTC 
ipfilter does not support:
 1) no-newline-at-end-of-file case when reading a rulelist from a file.
 2) line continuation with "\", although it says it is supported in a code comment.

Fix: A patch similar to this should fix both problems:
How-To-Repeat: Ipfilter should be able to read lines like:

pass in from\
any to any port = 23

block in all<EOF>

This has been fixed in the import of IP Filter 3.4.8, so this PR can be closed.

Thanks
