ebtables among match bug

Hi,

everytime I try to use the "among" match extension, it explodes in my
face with the following messages:

# ebtables -t nat -A ipv4filter -i bridgeext0 --among-src 00:00:00:00:00:ff -j ACCEPT

ebtables: among: wrong size: 1060against expected 1056, rounded to 1056
kernel msg: ebtables bug: please report to author: match->check failed

The reported sizes differ for different rules, but it is always 4 bytes
bigger than expected.

While trying to reproduce, I stumbled over another bug:

# ebtables -t nat -A ipv4filter -i bridgeext0 --among-src 00:00:00:00:00:01 -j ACCEPT

kernel msg: ebtables bug: please report to author: entries_size too small

The machine in question is running kernel 2.6.11.7 on x86-64.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
