This gets even wierder.  man klogd says:
"By  default  the  klogd  daemon  executes a system call to
       inhibit all kernel messages (except for panics) from being
       displayed  on  the  console.  The -c switch can be used to
       alter this behavior.  The argument given to the -c  switch
       specifies  the  priority  level  of messages which will be
       directed to the console.  Note that messages of a priority
       value  LOWER than the indicated number will be directed to
       the console."

...which I read as "It shouldn't be happening", so it looks like iptables
is bypassing the system call.
