But contributions to PF are made against OpenBSD kernel, true? And the
essence of problem is that:
- NetBSD version of PF is too old to adapt them without ton of work,
- even current PF in OpenBSD doesn't fit very well into MP kernels 
  and that makes "fresh" import cumbersome and fruitless

I'm right?
