Shorewall-shell generates that rule if it determines that the device is
a bridge. The Shorewall-shell code is broken when using Shorewall-lite
since it occurs during compilation.

Shorewall-perl makes no special provisions for bridges (it doesn't
support BRIDGING=Yes) and since a bridge must have 'routeback' with
Shorewall-perl, Shorewall-perl conditions that rule on 'routeback'
rather than on bridging.

So this difference is expected,
