I've added your files to the cvs and added binary file support to them.
I've written ebtables-restore as a C application since it's much faster
than a script. People wanting to use ebtables as a library should have a
look at it.
If you have some spare time, then please comment on them. I'm thinking
of releasing a first release candidate for ebtables v2.0.8...
It would be great if the current cvs version got some serious testing.

cheers,
Bart
