iptables won't compile in a debug turned on

[Mohammad Farooq]

Are you guys aware of that is in the iptables-1.3.6/Makefile if turn on
debugging:
CFLAGS:=$(COPT_FLAGS) -Wall -Wunused -I$(KERNEL_DIR)/include -Iinclude/
-DIPTABLES_VERSION=\"$(IPTABLES_VERSION)\" -g -DDEBUG -pg  -DIPTC_DEBUG
the compile will fail.

I didn't notice, it seems that nobody has been using it for quite some
time. I'm not sure if it is worth fixing this.

When everything works okay, yes this fix may not be needed. I was trying
to debug this problem with the u32 module that it was giving me "Invalid
argument" error. In desperation every bit of information helps.

Only enable the "-g -DDEBUG -pg" debug options - not the last one.

I would certainly accept a patch to fix this, but I don't think its
very important.
