I applied everthing to net-2.6.25 and pushed it all out, including
the NETFILTER_ADVANCED thing.  It was definitely an improvement.

Can you do something for me Patrick?  Go from a config with
NETFILTER disabled, then turn it on, use NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
and walk through the options presented to the user.

Some of those default=m cases are marked EXPERIMENTAL.  Either the
default=m or the EXPERIMENTAL are bogus, in each case.  Most of the
time it's the latter, and if you could fix these I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!
