Well, this doesn't make it less dubious of a hack but as I'm the one
who ultimately suggested such no complaints from me. Thanks for making
it glibc compatible.

About xt_id, that's how I'd have done it from the start, so thumbs up on
that one. Even less vendor lock-in. In fact after the last weeks changes
you can take firewall3 to pretty much any Linux distro and it still be
useful, well, while iptables still lasts that is.
