now that I see skip here - the bug with interfaces popping up and
interface groups was exactly with set skip on a group not being
applied to the member interface popping up. got that detail wrong on
my previous mail.

well you must have something in your ruleset that resolves differently
with and without the interface being present; my bet is on "to tapX"
or similar.
comparing pfctl -sr (you may need to do that per anchor if you use 'em)
and pfctl -sI before and after reloading should point out what.

I think it is related to your ruleset and pf is doing exactly what you
tell it to ;)
