When netgraph interfaces come and go, you might need to do a reload of
your rules, or dynamically add/delete them if your rule set specifically
references ng interfaces. If thats all it was, its easy enough to hook
into using something like

 set iface up-script /usr/local/etc/mpd5/up.sh

mpd5.5 is worth checking out for other reasons. It can do a lot and is
well supported for pptp stuff.
