>Description:
	I have had a closer look at ipf(5) and I did notice a (IMO) wrong
	syntax rule:

	    withopt = [ "not" | "no" ] opttype [ withopt ] .
	->  opttype = "ipopts" | "short" | "frag" | "opt" ipopts  .
	    optname   = ipopts [ "," optname ] .
	    ipopts  = optlist | "sec-class" [ secname ] .
 

	'optname' isn't used anywhere in the grammar. I _guess_ the rule for
	'opttype' should use 'optname' instead of 'ipopts' at the end.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Look at src/dist/ipf/man/ipf.5 (version 1.7 2002/01/24)
>Fix:
	Ask someone with more knowledge about ipfilter and then _maybe_ 
	change the rule for 'opttype' to
	    opttype = "ipopts" | "short" | "frag" | "opt" optname .
