 Umm, 41 is treated as ipv6, internally.  With following patch,
 
        allow ip from a.b.c.d to me proto 41
 
 should work for workaround.  However, it is still incomplete, and
 `ipfw show' shows
 
        allow ip from any to any proto ipv6
 
 Apart from this limitation, it seems working to me here.
