All of the problems fixed by the patch were introduced into -current
after 3.1-release (pf_norm.c 1.34), so 3.0 and 3.1 are not affected and
don't need patching.

I'd still consider updating to a supported -stable branch, even though
this particular problem doesn't require it. The next one might, if and
when it is found.
