There was one 64 bit architecture where iptables already worked with 32 bit userspace for some reason. I would like to make sure that it still works before it goes in because I can't debug it if it fails afterwards. I don't recall which arch it was, but I think Martin had one of these machines. Martin, could you give the compat patch a try?
