Please send .config; I can't reproduce this here.
[root@turing-police ~]# /etc/init.d/iptables start
iptables: Applying firewall rules: iptables-restore v1.4.2: iptables-restore: unable to initialize table 'filter'

OK, I think this might fix it. It's already queued, but was labelled a mere
"cleanup".

I wouldn't understand how it would fix it though;
the code before my patch passes in a 1, and the code after my patch passes in a variable
which has the value 1 as well.... using a symbolic name for it instead isn't going
to impact the generated code afaics...
