I really hope my answer doesn't sound stupid but why not add those hosts one
by one? If one add fails, the other will still succeed. 'pfctl -T add' might
even give you a return code for every add (didn't try it myself, sorry). Or
even better put those names in a little file and add it with '-T add -f
<file>' (from the manpage):

  'For the add, delete, replace, and test commands, the list of
   addresses can be specified either directly on the command line
   and/or in an unformatted text file, using the -f flag.'


Best regards,
Urs
