Sound as my lovely dad, you do.

On reflection, netfilter patches against specific kernels are likely to 
require it as a minimum version to patch against, I mean there is more 
likelyhood that a patch will patch against the next kernel revision than 
  the previous kernel revision, so yeah, it may mean a skip up to 
2.6.12, if that has ct-event in it

agghh!
