This is a well-known API problem with a small number of Linux kernels,
2.4.16 being one of them. The fix is to either use a current kernel,
or to modify the ipt_string.c in the obvious way: drop the third
argument to the max() macro.

Search for "ipt_string max" on www.google.com for lots of references
to fixes for this problem.
