The 4.0 stock pf.conf doesn't need two interfaces for spamd. If you look
closely you'll see everything for spamd is using $ext_if. The $int_if is
there as example for other uses (ftp-proxy).

Since you've brought up that you also have a 3.5 box... get that up to
date! If all it's doing is NAT/firewall/routing then you should be able
to get this up to 4.0 with minimum hassle, as in install a fresh 4.0 and
reintroduce your pf and routing configuration.
