this is possible in theory (and in fact I have done it)., but you 
really don't want that... upgrading the full OS is muchg easier. This 
becomes more and more true as pf becomes deeper integrated. For 
example, with the altq integration, the whole altq part needs 
upgrading too, and that's not even all - a new mbuf tag needs to be 
registered (same for pf tags in -current). Then, in -current, 
bridge(4) is a pf receiver as well... you get the idea.
