You are exactly right here :)

If you want to do it extra good:  Write some scripts automizing the process.

Like:

./test-pom /usr/src/linux-x.y.z

and then the script gives a summary about what works and what doesn't.
Then I could run this for every new kernel and see where the problems are.

For 2.4.18-rc2 there is no need for that.  The problem is that there have been
lots of netfilter updates since 2.4.17 to the kernel and not all of them are
in patch-o-matic.

I will try to make everything work until 2.4.18 is released.
