>Description:
There is a bug with inference on ifaddrs(). When a variable is used, the
inference doesn't work.

For example:

	$var2 = ifaddrs(wm0)

	# Works
	pass in on ifaddrs(wm0) from $var2

	# Doesn't work
	pass in on $var2 from $var2

Both rules should resolve to 'pass in on wm0', but the second one doesn't
work.

If you pass inet4()/inet6() instead of ifaddrs(), it works.
