Yep, now I just see an attempt to modprobe "ip_set" (under limited circumstances), which seems reasonable given that I am on 2.6.38 and this isn't compiled in (nor is it a module) That said, I'm also slightly baffled where it's getting probed since I patched out xtables.c/xtables_load_ko(). The modprobe call doesn't hav= e a -q on it, so I suspect somehow it might be the kernel or something else calling it? It's an acceptable casualty for the moment though... Thanks for your interest and looking into this - big increase in performance!
