I ran across this web page:

It implies that both ipfw and ipfilter can be used simultaneously on
the same box, using ipfilter as the main firewall and ipfw just to
shape the traffic via dummynet. I did not think that this was
possible. Anyone out there tried this? Any gotchas?
I've seen this discussed more than once in relation to doing it with
FreeBSD. Indeed the FAQ for FreeBSD
(http://www.phildev.net/ipf/IPFfreebsd.html) talks about doing this:
It is possible to use IPFW and IPF together, e.g. using IPFW for
dummynet and IPF for filterning and NAT, see below.
See the FAQ for more.
