iptables 1.4.21-2 adds a patch to fix upstream issue 940. [1] [2]

The upstream Git repository contains a newer and more complete fix:

http://git.netfilter.org/iptables/commit/?id=2192c3a

My suggestion is to include that patch instead of the one that was provided in the upstream report.

[1] https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/iptables&id=ecd0344
[2] https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=940

@Evangelos: That would require adding http://git.netfilter.org/iptables/patch/extensions/libip6t_DNPT.t?id=e8a95271dc8598261957f9ed5472dfb9065bdd9e as well (not sure if that in turn depends on other patches). If I'm not mistaken the patches are the same except for the changes to the *.t files, but these don't exist in the old code so won't be used anyway unless we move to a current git checkout of the stable branch.

I wasn't aware that the test files were added recently. The rest of the patch applies cleanly, so we can just ignore the chunks that refer to the tests. (See attached patch.)

The patches are not exactly the same; the upstream commit also fixes the output of the DNPT_print and SNPT_print functions (in addition to the *_save functions).
