For what it's worth and for a different answer ;) I have recently tried rc.firewall (http://projectfiles.com/firewall/) and I really really liked it. It is only one file which you run from your /etc/conf.d/local.start. The good thing that I liked apart from it being only one script file is that it is *dead* easy to setup and run. All I had to do was fill a one line config variable and I was set. I went this route because at that moment I needed a firewall ASAP and didn't have time to even look at configuration files. Now I have it running on 4 machines without any problems so far. I recommend it at least as an option.
