If I'm not mistaken, there are quite a cople of 'memory leaks' in iptables.c.
Sometimes I'm under the impression that the inital developers didn't care
too much about this. Rusty? Any comments?
As do_command is onl called once per iptables process, there might have
been the impression that 'cleaning up' is not necessarry.
However, wih large rulesets and iptables-restore, this assumption is no
longer true, ...
I'm always happy to receive patches :)
