Yes, given that the option is off by default, I do not really understand
the issue.

Its true that the option is currently a bit flawed, but my refactoring
of TCP listener should solve the problem soon. I do not feel necessary
to 'fix' xt_socket --nowildcard right now.

Oh, if the binary is too old, make sure commit
681f130f39e100 is there...
("netfilter: xt_socket: fix broken v0 support")

Thanks
