Well, you cannot filter fragments unless you keep state, assuming the header fragment survives and arrives first. I guess if you wanted to be nice, you would store fragments for a while or until they are validated by a header fragment, and hold header fragments for a while, but state and storage makes the firewall vulnerable.
Can you make the UDP apps use smaller packets?
I always thought they messed up in http, making it tcp based, at least until http1.1 persistent connections with compression. I thought it might be nice to add a UDP flavored brother. A small graphic file GET would be one packet out, one back, no extra for SYN or FIN or ACK. DNS makes great use of UDP, one socket for an app that, for every packet in, sends one packet out, no fork, threads, poll, select, listen, accept or such.

netscript-compile
NET-COMPILE(8) System Manager's Manual NET-COMPILE(8)
NAME
netscript-compile - netscript ipfilter-defs compile back end.
SYNOPSIS
netcript-compile [ -fhq ] [ -b max-backup-level ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the netscript-compile command from the netscript router/firewall network configuration package.
This command is the back end to the netscript compile command documented in netscript(8) manpage. See ipfilter-defs(5) for the details on
the definitions files in /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.
By default it checks to see if the relevant files in the /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory have been updated by comparing their modi-
fication times to that of /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf, and if updating is needed, it recompiles and re-creates the file. Up to max-
backup-levels of history are kept of previously compiled /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf files, with a numeric extention in order of
increasing age.
OPTIONS
-b max-backup-level
Sets the maximum level of backups kept of previously compiled files. This defaults to 2 (see /etc/netscript/netscript-com-
pile.conf), and it is also used by the netscript(8) compile command.
-f Force compile even though compile file is up to date with definitions. The testing depends on the modification times of the defini-
tion file inodes in the file system.
-h
Show a summary of options.
-q Quiet compile. This option suppresses informational progress messages.
FILES
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf,
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs-compiled.conf,
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory.
SEE ALSO
ipfilter-defs(5), netscript(8).
