1 Why not just make a new iptables package with no "extensions" IUSE,
2 and then make a rev-bump when the new patches are available?

4 True some users will lose functionality, but if the package simply
5 does not have that functionality, the Gentoo package maintainer is not

7 version untill patches are released and a rev-bump made.
