Hi Dawson,

        FYI, you missed one, which was fixed in 2.4.2.  This is tricky
since ip_fw_ctl is defined in TWO (mutually exclusive) places:
ipfwadm_core.c and ipchains_core.c.

        Oh, I see in a later message that you do CONFIG=y.  Hmm, you
won't even get asked about these if you've said CONFIG=y to
CONFIG_IPTABLES.  You're best off trying CONFIG=m, which allows a
compile of everything, but that may be outside your framework, in
which case a series of different configurations might be in order...

Hope that helps, and keep up the great work!
