ipfw breakage in 5.2

Sorry if this is a false alarm, but with the "open" firewall
ruleset in effect:

# ipfw l
00100 allow ip from any to any via lo
00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8
00300 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any
65000 allow ip from any to any
65535 allow ip from any to any

I can't ping my loopback:

# ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Permission denied

is this known/expected?
