This flies like a Boeing(R) 777 buddy ;). As the NFPROTO_* thing is only
internal used by xtables, not by the hooks. The hooks use the protocol
family, and we've been using NF_ARP to 0 by now.

arptables sees *no packet at all*.

The ARP mangling does not work. Try:

arptables -o eth0 -l 6 -I OUTPUT -j mangle --mangle-mac-s 00:15:58:28:5a:30

and tcpdump the arp request.

Yes, your patch will also work, but it introduces an inconsistency in
the naming used to register hooks in the family field.
