I don't think upstream cares so much yet because last time I checked the
bug doesn't exist there (this behaviour is dependant on the combination
of older versions of firehol and recent versions of certain core
packages, which debian (at least etch) hasn't updated to yet but ubuntu
has)

The way I've fixed it on my affected systems (1 feisty, 1 gutsy) is
simple, but we need a fix in the package:

download latest firehol
run (as root) get-iana.sh and answer yes to saving the list to 
/etc/firehol/RESERVED_IPS        (If you're behind a proxy like me you need to 
first edit the script and remove '--no-proxy' so it will respect the http_proxy 
environment variable (One of those "What were they thinking?" moments))
copy firehol.sh to /sbin/firehol
/etc/init.d/firehol restart

This however ignores /etc/default/firehol, though patching the firehol
script to support this in true debian style shouldn't be too hard.
