I see.
So calling m->XXX may not be a wise long term solution.
Hasan's patch has a call to xtables_option_tpcall(), if that is the
right interface I hope that going forward if any of the m->parseXX

True - but we are getting broken because we are using a call that only 5
or so users provide. It would have saved us time if we got the
a good log message instead of checking for if !m->parse()
