I have a 7.1-PRERELEASE box on which I use pf with user/uid rules, and would
be glad to test this out. I've recompiled with the usual debug
options, but I was
curious if I should be leaving:

debug.pfugidhack=1

Alone for the testing? I assume this needs to remain set to 1? I'm not manually
setting this, so I guess it is the default now (haven't looked in a while).
