[PATCH] Module aliases for xt_iprange

[PATCH] Module aliases for xt_iprange

Using iptables 1.3.8 with kernel 2.6.25, rules which include '-m iprange'
don't automatically pull in xt_iprange module.  Below patch adds module
aliases to fix that.  Patch against latest -git, but seems like a good 
candidate for -stable also.

Applied, thanks Phil. I'll also push it to -stable once it hits
upstream.
