ok, 
i solved that problem for me now and i want to thank every-
body for your input and suggestions. 

the problem was that /sbin/ipf didn't get replaced by an up-to-date
version during the installworld phase, either because of a kinda
corrupted or otherwise incorrect source tree after doing a cvsup.

either both, or one of the two following steps corrected that:
.) completely emptying /usr/src and re-cvsupping a fresh copy of
the source tree
.) cleaning out /usr/obj/* before doing the build and installworld

additionally, i mv'd /sbin/ipf /sbin/ipf_old before build and install-
world. 

so i am happy that my ipf now works again with 4.4-prerelease and
again i want to thank everybody who replied and helped me with their
input and suggestions. this is great.

thanks very much and regards
