You can use SNMP to monitor the wan interface on almost all routers, (I know personally about the cisco), so you might set something up that monitors taht, or you could using a dynamic routing protcocal, even rip would do, just something interactive between OBSD firewall and the router, the router would update the firewall via the routing protocal if the line was down and use a higher admin distance on the DSL link.
Keep in mind also that redundancy is fine for outgoing traffic, but to actually route incoming traffic you must also have an upstream ISP(s) that can handle redundant links, or you will have to obtain your own ASN and manage your own BGP.
