May I propose we add manpage information to patch-o-matic. It should be possible to use the same kind of magics as for Configure.help.. patchname.man[-X] Where the first line is the existing line where the new documentation should be inserted. Having the patch-o-matic extension you have applied documented in the iptables manpage you have installed as part of the same build process has great value I think. The icky part, shared with .userspace, is that once you have applied pathes from your iptables source you will need to clean it up before patching another kernel source tree.. Regards Henrik
