Thanks for the patch.  Unfortunately it's not that easy. Writing the 10-line
patch is smallest part of the job.

The interesting question is:  How to achieve backwards- and
forwards-compatibility for

- making old kernel work with new iptables (easy)
- making new kernel work with old iptables (easy)
- make new iptables compile with old kernel headers
- make old iptables compile with new kernels (easy)

btw: ipv6 is not necessary, I still need to finish the ipv6 reject
target anyways.
