I don't understand why you think of it as a work-around? It's a fix for the problem that in some cases, shorewall reload doesn't reload because the logic to detect changes fails on package updates which don't set current timestamps. I'd never want to have automatic recompilation on package upgrade - not for firewall code which may cut my line I'm using while doing the upgrade. On package upgrade, you don't see any error messages (with rpm, deb is different). How do you handle cases where compilaton fails? For me that's too dangerous. I do package upgrade, merge config files, reload, diff generated firewall and be happy.
