once again, with that lovely IRC channel that is out there, I noticed a software that produces odd rules, and indeed, the latest iptables (and ip6tables) seem to allow a match that has no equivalent CIDR
number, such as:

	-A test -d 0.0.0.123/0.0.0.255

It absolutely works, but if iptables is supposed to support that (is it?), I should be adding it to the manpage.
Comments?

Its supposed to work, apparently people have been using masks like
/0.0.0.1 for load-balancing with better distribution than /1 :)
