This is a serious security bug.

guarddog is not able to detect iptables from 3.* kernels (i.e. unable to set
FILTERSYS variable to 2), and thus the rc.firewall script is aborted: no
firewall rules are set.

I just realized I was running a system with no firewall protection at all,
since the first 3.* kernel came out.
