Unfortunately the ipt_recent netfilter maintainer is no longer fixing
bugs in this module and there are several known problems which are
outstanding. The upstream Netfilter people intend to mark this module as
BROKEN or EXPERIMENTAL in 2.6.16 if a new maintainer is not found[1].
This is unfortunate, because this is an fun solution to this problem.
Hopefully it will get fixed soon.
