WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG!  Don't do that.  It'll start emmitting all
kinds of errors when you do: /etc/init.d/iptables save which calls
iptables-save.

The problem is that iptables-restore doesn't realize people are doing
things wrong and segfaults when it sees a -t flag.

Yeah and they applied it and it causes preciously the problem I
described above.
