Well, according to the Makefiles in src/usr.sbin/ipf/xxx
the only ipf/ipnat related programs using kvm are
ipfstat and ipnat.
Since ipf doesn't, I was wondering if this kvm stuff is
just needed for statistics (e.g. ipnat -l ). If so, did
someone take a look at the code to check that? Or is
the kvm lib that necessary to ipnat? (I'm going to look
at the code next week. No time for that now ;)

Cheers,
Alexander
