            Bug ID: 240130
           Summary: Adding a pf anchor containing a "/" defines the anchor
                    incorrectly
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
          Reporter: free...@tim.thechases.com

tl;dr: Simple reduced example
=============================

  $ echo 'anchor "blacklistd/*"' | pfctl -nvf -

on OpenBSD, this outputs what I'd expect:

  anchor "blacklistd/*" all

however on FreeBSD (tried 12-RELEASE-p10 here, and got corroboration from
"Evilham" on IRC for 13.0-CURRENT), this outputs

  anchor "/*" all

where the anchor name has been stripped out. The "/" seems to cause the issue
since the following all produce the results I expect (whether useful, sensible, 
or not):

  $ echo 'anchor "blacklistd"' | pfctl -nvf -
  $ echo 'anchor "blacklistd*"' | pfctl -nvf -
  $ echo 'anchor "*"' | pfctl -nvf -


Longer details/backstory:
=========================

Was trying to figure out why blacklistd wasn't populating the anchor properly
with blocking rules. After a morning of troubleshooting, determined that
blacklistd was correctly interacting with sshd, and
/usr/libexec/blacklistd-helper was getting as far as invoking `pfctl` with the
(AFAIK) correct parameters, but pf didn't seem to have the anchor in place.  I
tracked it down to the lack of a "blacklistd/*" anchor existing.  So I
experimented with my pf.conf file stripping it down to the bare essentials of
just a "scrub in all" and that one 'anchor "blacklistd"' entry, only to see
that loading the pf.conf file still listed the only anchor as "/*" not
"blacklistd/*".
