Subject: ipv4 conntrack module loading broken?

Hello,

I tested 2.6.23-rc1 on my prep (arch=ppc) NAT firewall. iptables loaded 
rules fine (simplest test was with single SNAT rule in POSTROUTING chain 
in nat table) and iptables -L showed the rule was loaded. But no packets 
matched the rule and traffic passed un-NATed (just routed). Adding LOG 
rules showed that no packets reach POSTROUTING at all - and no packets 
read PREROUTING (didn't test more).

However, after loading nf_conntrack_ipv4 module by hand, the existing 
rules started working.

Is autoloading of nf_conntrack_ipv4 broken?
