Yes, I see that now. Thanks, Andy.

Not sure what to do here. It sure seems it wants raw kernel headers.
I pointed the KERNEL_DIR to the sanitized headers in /usr/include,
but not all that IPTables needs is there. In fact, pointing at the
sanitized headers results in just the libipt_recent module to build.

Sure enough, pointing at raw kernel headers causes many more extensions
to build:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~/build/iptables-1.3.5 > make 
KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.14

Extensions found: IPv4:CLUSTERIP IPv4:dccp IPv4:recent IPv4:string IPv6:REJECT 
IPv6:ah IPv6:esp IPv6:frag IPv6:ipv6header IPv6:hbh IPv6:dst IPv6:rt
