You have to manually update all files in /etc after upgrading from a
previous release. That's nothing new, nor related to pf. With 2.9
versions of /etc/rc, /etc/netstart etc., many things will not work
right.

And yes, the ifconfig line was added to pflogd(8) after 3.0 was
released, sorry about that.
