IMHO, PF_DIVERT and PF_INET are preferred spellings when we talk about socket(2) as it stands for "protocol family". The AF stands for "address family" and is preferred for sa_family member in struct sockaddr.

P.S. I know they are the same always :)

Will update.

But why are we breaking compat like this? I have at least one python test script which is broken now.

python knows PF_DIVERT for three years already. I'm fine with adding compat back, but I want distinct FreeBSD release when we remove it. Otherwise it becomes a forever story.

People have been confusing these two constants since 4.2BSD.
