Appletalk and IPX, I believe.  I ended up aliasing net-pf-4 to some
module equivalent to /dev/null, and compiling IPX into the kernel (for
Samba).  You probably need to tell diald to ignore IPX traffic (ports
137, 138, and 139.  Well-known as netbios-ns, netbios-dgm, and
netbios-ssn, respectively) if you have Samba or use SMB support. 
Otherwise, null out the net-pf-5 module as well.
