i hope this is the right forum for asking this question... i imagine it will
have a simple answer :)

i was just curious, from pftop i saw these states:

PR   DIR SRC                  DEST                 STATE AGE EXP PKTS BYTES
udp  Out 127.0.0.1:14770      127.0.0.1:53          2:1  32   0   2   186
udp  Out 127.0.0.1:53         127.0.0.1:14770       1:0  32  28   1   115

and w/ pfctl -s state | grep udp, u see the same kind of stuff:

udp 127.0.0.1:30551 -> 127.0.0.1:53       MULTIPLE:SINGLE
udp 127.0.0.1:29610 -> 127.0.0.1:53       MULTIPLE:SINGLE
udp 127.0.0.1:16319 -> 127.0.0.1:53       MULTIPLE:SINGLE
udp 127.0.0.1:53 -> 127.0.0.1:30551       SINGLE:NO TRAFFIC
udp 127.0.0.1:53 -> 127.0.0.1:29610       SINGLE:NO TRAFFIC
udp 127.0.0.1:53 -> 127.0.0.1:16319       SINGLE:NO TRAFFIC

question is very simple:  why?  i assume the left/right sides of the ':'
ought to be identical between the reflexive rules of the stateful
connection...  am i missing something?  thanks :)
