Hmm; looks like -nothing's- in the kernel (and no mention of any of these 
in modules.conf):

  www2:~# modprobe ipchains
   modprobe: Can't locate module ipchains
  www2:~# modprobe ipfwadm
   modprobe: Can't locate module ipfwadm
  www2:~# modprobe ipmasq
   modprobe: Can't locate module ipmasq
  www2:~# ipmasq
   IP Masquerade has not been enabled in the kernel.
