Comment 7 for bug 684088

I was wrong, that patch doesn't really change things here, I thought this report was about build time and not run time.

There still seems to be some issues here but I don't really see it as worth fixing: iptables/ebtables are so commonly available, and this will only hit cases where people are building by hand and not using distribution packages. So we could extend the code to handle it, but frankly I don't think it's worth the effort of implementing. That said if someone shows up on the list with a simple patch I'm sure it will be accepted
