IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT becomes default to deny

Hey Guys,

today I upgraded to 4.8-RELEASE-p15. As usual I set IPFIREWALL to default
accept in my kernel config file.
Config & make weren't complaining so, installed the kernel, reboot and there
it was: 
>IP packet filtering initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding
enabled, default to deny, logging disabled

Another rebuild didn't work out so... I reviewed /usr/src/UPDATING but
there's no such thing as dropping IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT.

So, is this a true bug or what?

Regards,

Ruben
