OK, I fixed it... I've built a new version of netbase which was uploaded
*just* too late for today's dinstall run. Anyway, ipfwadm now works.
On a related note, I also did a sourceful NMU of netstd, as the patches
to identd (related to the alignment traps) had not been added. I also
had to change the version number, as it was 3.07-7slink.1 and that was
considered a downgrade compared to 3.07-7.1 ... It's now
3.07-7.1.slink.1 :-) Unfortunately this one was also too late to be
installed today. On the other hand this opens a time window for some
discussion on debian-devel in the meantime :-)
