The objects need to be loaded in the following ordering: #1 tables #2 chains #3 sets #4 rules We have to make sure that chains are in place by when we add rules with jumps/gotos. Similarly, we have to make sure that the sets are in place by when rules reference them. Without this patch, you may hit ENOENT errors depending on your ruleset configuration.
