As you can see, the old ->parse() that goes back to libxtables.so.0

I see.
So calling m->XXX may not be a wise long term solution.
Hasan's patch has a call to xtables_option_tpcall(), if that is the
right interface I hope that going forward if any of the m->parseXX
changes you will take care of hiding all that stuff.
old parse has not entered any deprecation stage yet, since there are still
plugins out there (both the 5 and external ones) that make use of it.
Right now, both parse and x6_parse are valid.
True - but we are getting broken because we are using a call that only 5
or so users provide. It would have saved us time if we got the
a good log message instead of checking for if !m->parse()
Yes, all those with an x6_ prefix are new.
Mh, I already dream of plans reducing m_xt to something that
does not require libxtables.so anymore.
That would be nice - but someone is going to have to link to libxtables, no?
cheers,
