Squid and ipfilter

I'm using ipfilter 3.2.9 to do transparent cacheing with squid on
solaris 2.6. The squid FAQ suggests the following rule in ipnat.rules
should work:

rdr hme0 0.0.0.0/0 port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8080 tcp

but nothing happens. However, if I use the following in ipnat.rules it
all works and squid receives the requests transparently (where
143.53.xx.xx ipaddress of the solaris server with ipfilter and
ipfilter-enabled squid installed):

rdr hme0 0.0.0.0/0 port 80 -> 143.53.xx.xx port 8080 tcp

Because the second version works, I'm confident that the squid is
configured OK but anyone know why the first version doesn't work ?
