I cetainly did. A simple `make oldconfig' ends up zapping pretty much

I must admit not quite understanding why the xtables stuff is needed:
I thought that was needed for userspace connection tracking, which
while it sounds cool isn't something I'm using yet.


Beeing bitten by such issues in the past, I always diff the old and the new config and look for anything suspicious going down.
