Yes, but iptable developers meant that option to indicate
_where to find_ modules at runtime!
You need to have different LIBDIR= settings for "make" and "make install".
make LIBDIR=/where/to/look/for/modules/at/runtime
make LIBDIR=/where/to/install/modules install
If it will not work (say, make install will start rebuilding stuff
due to changed LIBDIR), you will need to do "make install" -
by hand copying stuff. Feel free to curse a lot in the process.
