Thanks, Simon.

Note that in the Shorewall/code git repository
(https://gitlab.com/shorewall/code), there are no .annotabed sample
files. Those files are created during the build process by combining
each plain config file with its associated manpage.

Also, the manpages are generated from .xml files; so when modifying a
manpage, the patch must be against the XML file and not the resulting
manpage.

So you only need to provide patches for Tc.pm, tcinterfaces.xml,
tcdevices.xml and tcclasses.xml.
