 Right,
 
 After some further inspection I have news...
 
 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!!!
 
 Cheers,
