PFIL for IPsec tunneled packets (was: reverse processing order: NAT, IPsec?)

Applying this "fix" would break my installation. At least as long as those
packets are indistinguishable from non-IPsec traffic arriving on the same
interface.
Currently, packets arriving on the gateway's external interface but appearing
to come from an internal network are dropped by anti-spoofing filter rules. ESP
traffic passes, and the de-encapsulated packets are never seen again by the
packet filter. If they were, they should be somehow marked as being
de-encapsulated---otherwise they would be dropped by the anti-spoof rules.
