Patrick, what do you say?
Agreed on your reasoning. I don't have much of an opinion, we
mainly tried to hide it because it was never suitable for anything
else than a short "iptables ..." command because of memory leaks
etc. I think we're a lot better with this nowadays, if we can
get the worst remaining ones plugged and somewhat of a usable
API we can certainly add it as a library.
I have the code ready, it is easily mergeable-and-revertible(*) too, but
let's wait with that because it currently relies on a certain revision
of Makefile.am (IOW: merge conflicts with nf).
(*) That is, changing it from 'lib_LTLIBRARIES' to 'noinst_LTLIBARIES'
and it automatically becomes static wrt. the executables again. Oh I
love automake :)
I'd prefer to wait until after the next release with this. We already
have quite a few changes and missed the last release, so I want to
start stabilizing a nice new release for 2.6.29 soon.
