Hello. If we recompile kernel without ALTQ support, during loading system the message " No ALTQ support in the kernel ALTQ related functions disabled " will be printed twice since from /etc/rc there are two calls pfctl. It, you see, irritates a little... Also this message is constantly deduced at enable/disable packet filter... One of numerous variants of the decision of this "issue" is below enclosed. Just simply print this message when the -q or -v mode is required.
