Okay -- but it has nothing to do with incompatible versions of Shorewall
and Shorewall-lite.

It rather has to do with the very old version of iptables that you are
running; 0x10/0xff is accepted by later versions but not 1.3.5. I wasn't
aware of that, and hence I inadvertently broke the 'tos' match on
RHEL5-based systems.

I need to add a new capability to fix that.
