nfq_unbind_pf() fails with kernel 2.6.23

hi,
I don't seem to be able to run the nfqnl_test code with kernel 2.6.23 (amd64).
It prints the following:

The version that are used:
libnfnetlink 0.0.25
libnetfilter-queue 0.0.13

Yeah, we've added a check to prohibit unregistering other handlers. The entire unregistration stuff is a horrible hack, the only reason why it (still) exists is because registration of the same handler returns EEXIST instead of silently ignoring it. The best fix for now is to ignore the return value of nfq_unbind_pf().

Thanks
