And as I have found out over the last few hours, getting the IMQ into 
Linux 2.4.21 isn't such an easy task :)  Go read up on IMQ here: 
http://trash.net/~kaber/imq/. Note that it is no longer maintained.

Now I'm trying to get iptables to compile cleanly. That project can 
probably wait till later, since it's now *way* past my bedtime! :)

No you can't, because of the way the IMQ and netfilter interact.
