Bug#454559: masquerading broken after upgrade from 2.6.20

[Simon Richter <sjr@debian.org>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.22-3-vserver-powerpc
Version: 2.6.22-6
Severity: normal

Hi,

I've recently upgraded to a newer kernel, and since then, a number of
hosts on my local LAN are unable to contact the outside world (using the
same setup). It appears that some of the netfilter changes between
2.6.20 and 2.6.22 broke masquerading on big endian architectures.
