FYI, no need for PFIL_HOOKS option in kernel anymore.

UPDATING Log: Always compile PFIL_HOOKS into the kernel and remove the associated kernel compile option. All FreeBSD packet filters now use the PFIL_HOOKS API and thus it becomes a standard part of the network stack. If no hooks are connected the entire packet filter hooks section and related activities are jumped over. This removes any performance impact if no hooks are active. Both OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD have integrated PFIL_HOOKS permanently as well.
