Yes, that's it. And it working for you just emphasizes something's fishy
here. I just reverted my patch, then it's like this:

| $ ./configure --prefix=$PWD/install && make && make install
| [...]
| $ ./install/sbin/iptables-translate -I INPUT -m state --state NEW
| nft # -I INPUT -m state --state NEW

Using 'strace -eopen' I see that libxt_state.so from the install
destination is used, not the system one.

Also, I did this change for debugging:

| --- a/iptables/xtables-translate.c
| +++ b/iptables/xtables-translate.c
| @@ -100,6 +100,10 @@ int xlate_matches(const struct iptables_command_state *cs, struct xt_xlate *xl)
|                         .escape_quotes  = !cs->restore,
|                 };
|  
| +               printf("found match %s, rev %u, xlate is %p\n",
| +                               matchp->match->name,
| +                               matchp->match->revision,
| +                               matchp->match->xlate);
|                 if (!matchp->match->xlate)
|                         return 0;

The output is then:

| $ ./install/sbin/iptables-translate -I INPUT -m state --state NEW
| nft found match state, rev 0, xlate is (nil)
| # -I INPUT -m state --state NEW

Am I missing something??

Thanks, Phil
