	I could wax long about both, since I use them on a daily basis
	at multiple sites, both in simple and redundant setups (with CARP
	and pfsync in the case of PF).

	Traffic shaping is much easier with dummynet/ipfw than with with
	altq and pf.  You can mix and match pf/ipfw of course.  Didn't try
	with IPv6.
