so why do you have ip_*/xt_* modules loaded? unless I misunderstand your 
orig msg, you're just doing

%  sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

then if that's the case, check both situations without unneeded modules.
In the (old) case I mentioned, the w/round was to unload+reload the modules
(if/when needed).

Checking here on Etch + 2.4.25.4, no nf modules, I see no differences 
between ip_fw 0/1.
