The patch also causes Shorewall-perl to warn when a CONTINUE policy is
between orphan zones (zones with no parent zones):

Compiling /home/teastep/Kevin/shorewall/policy...
   WARNING: CONTINUE policy between orphan zones (net, fw) : 
/home/teastep/Kevin/shorewall/policy (line 106)
   WARNING: CONTINUE policy between orphan zones (net, dnd) : 
/home/teastep/Kevin/shorewall/policy (line 106)
