The effort is aimed at:

a) providing up-to-date packages (including tarballs) from Shorewall.net so
that people who download the latest packages don't have to apply patches.
b) accomodating the Debian packager in that the Debian packaging system
wants patches that can be applied with "-p1" while the errata patches are
applied with "-p0".
