Only problems I've had with carp recently weren't actually due to
carp, but the dhcp daemon.  There's a hold down timer somewhere that
won't let it come up as primary for 300 or 360 seconds (my bet is
there two different timeouts, a  60 second timeout and a 300 second
one).  So if you're running a highly available DHCP server on your
pfSense box, keep this in mind - don't reboot both within about 10
minutes of each other for now.
