But recall that there are other netfilter modules doing this
"compare chars using cast to long" trick that need to be fixed
too.

Also, adding attributes to user exported structures would need
to be done _very_ carefully, as compilation when using such
gcc extensions will fail when the user uses '-ansi' on the
compiler command line.
