As per the developers handbook (5.3.1 step 1), prepare the vendor trees for
import of new ipfilter vendor sources by flattening them. To keep the tags consistent with dist, the tags are also flattened. Approved by: glebius (Mentor)

+This file is for use with FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x only.
+
+To build a kernel for use with the loadable kernel module, follow these
+steps:
+ 1. For FreeBSD version:
+ 4.* do make freebsd4
+ 5.* do make freebsd5
+
+ 2. do "make install-bsd"
+ (probably has to be done as root)
+
+ 3. Run "BSD/kupgrade"
+
+ 4. build a new kernel
+
+ 5. install and reboot with the new kernel
+
+ 6. use modload(8) to load the packet filter with:
+ modload if_ipl.o
+
+ 7. do "modstat" to confirm that it has been loaded successfully.
+
+There is no need to use mknod to create the device in /dev;
+- upon loading the module, it will create itself with the correct values,
+ under the name (IPL_NAME) from the Makefile. It will also remove itself
+ from /dev when it is modunload'd.
+
+To build a kernel with the IP filter, follow these steps:
+
+ 1. For FreeBSD version:
+ 4.* do make freebsd4
+ 5.* do make freebsd5
+
+ 2. do "make install-bsd"
+ (probably has to be done as root)
+
+ 3. run "FreeBSD/kinstall" as root
+
+ 4. build a new kernel
+
+ 5.
+ b) If you are using FreeBSD-3 or later:
+ create devices for IP Filter as follows (assuming it was
+ installed into the device table as char dev 20):
+ mknod /dev/ipl c 79 0
+ mknod /dev/ipnat c 79 1
+ mknod /dev/ipstate c 79 2
+ mknod /dev/ipauth c 79 3
+ mknod /dev/ipsync c 79 4
+ mknod /dev/ipscan c 79 5
+
+ 6. install and reboot with the new kernel
