Yes... To avoid any kind of misunderstanding during the configuration, 
this is what I did:
- I downloaded a 2.4.18-vanilla tarball
- I've checked out thru CVS the entire netfilter/userspace repository 
directory
- I launched the make patch-o-matic

It obviously made a lot of questions for each patch to install, and it 
didn't find anything wrong during the whole process.
The only problem happens when it tries to install the tftp-conntrack 
helper (that was what I really needed from all this thing... damn...): 
it comes out with:

Testing patch extra/tftp-conntrack-nat.patch...
    Placed new Config.in line
    Placed new Config.in line
    Placed new Configure.help entry
    Placed new Makefile line
Could not find place to slot in Makefile line
TEST FAILED: patch NOT applied.

[Press enter to continue]

And this is not such a verbose comment if I need to understand where the 
problem is :-)

Thanx 4 all...
