This seems to be a problem in clang-cpp which adds an extra space before the dash in a macro which should have a value of the format "number1-number2". So, e.g. "1024-65535" becomes "1024 -65535". If I use gcpp instead, everything works just fine with ipfw. The fact that I did not see this happening with TCP rules as well was just lucky coincidence. So, this is a clang problem, not an ipfw problem!!!
