ACK. (Does this mean that new libvirt-tck will fail when run against an
older libvirt, though?)

By the way, when the patch went into libvirt, the person who posted it
mentioned that when restarting libvirtd after the first upgrade with
that patch, the existing rules wouldn't get removed because they
wouldn't be an exact match to what libvirt was trying to remove:

Is this actually a problem? I had thought that nwfilter always removed
entire chains instead of individual rules.
