The "Passing Traffic" example at http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/filter.html doesn't seem to be completely accurate.
# Pass traffic in on dc0 from the local network, 192.168.0.0/24, # to the OpenBSD machine's IP address 192.168.0.1. Also, pass the # return traffic out on dc0. pass in on dc0 from 192.168.0.0/24 to 192.168.0.1 pass out on dc0 from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.0/24 It's the "return" that bugs me: the first rule alone makes the _return_ traffic be passed. The second rule allows traffic that originates (creates state) on the way out. Right?
