I have a problem that's been getting progressively worse as the
source progresses.  So much so that it's had me searching all the
way from 8.0-RELEASE to 10-CURRENT without luck on both amd64 and
i386.

pf(4) erroneously mismatches state and then blocks an active flow.
It seems that 8.X does so silently and 9 to -CURRENT do so verbosely.
Whether silent or loud, the effect on traffic makes it impracticle
to use FreeBSD+PF for a firewall in any setting (my use is home,
small office, large office and moderately large datacenter core
router).  It appears that this has actually been a forever problem
that just being tickled more now.

Here's from my home firewall:
Status: Enabled for 7 days 02:57:58           Debug: Urgent

State Table                          Total             Rate

Here's from a moderately busy firewall:
Status: Enabled for 0 days 21:40:44           Debug: Urgent

State Table                          Total             Rate

  state-mismatch                    277767            3.6/s

That's 277767 flows terminated in the last almost 22 hours due to
this pf bug. (!!!)
