The problem is that "linux/netfilter/x_tables.h" got included in SVN

Can someone with SVN write access fix this?

  "svn rm include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h"

Actually the fix is the other way around, we want to be able to
build iptables without having kernel sources locally. So I
guess the x_tables.h file should be resynced or something?

If thats what you want, we need to add ip_tables.h in
include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/.  Its the interaction between ip_tables.h
and x_tables.h that screw things up.

Since you seem to be able to test it, would you care to send a patch? :)

Both ip_tables.h and x_tables.h are part of the kernel source code.
Thare might be some dependencies to specific kernel, so it might not be
wise to include the files in SVN as we make a dependency to this
specific kernel, and we also needs to keep them in sync.

The interface between userspace and kernel is stable, there's no
risk by including those files.
