Newer OpenBSD utilises additional field in CARP PDU, that isn't
filled, neither analyzed by FreeBSD.

After quick reading of OpenBSD CARP code, it seems that it should
interoperate fine with older CARP from OpenBSD, and thus with CARP
in FreeBSD.

Note that in FreeBSD 10 the way CARP is configured has changed a lot,
but the wire protocol is the same.

Regarding pfsync. It is wire compatible with the version of the last
import from OpenBSD. And last time I looked into OpenBSD (a year ago),
it was still wire compatible.
