Thomas,
In that case I don't think you can do it with just pfilter. You will
need to add a special rule to iptables to accept incoming connections on
the alias port, i.e. something like:
iptables -A INPUT -d <ALIASIP> -j ACCEPT
before the jump to pfilter (note, you might want to protect it a bit
more than this), and then bring up your alias interface.
If you want more details, let me know.
