The maintainer is likely to direct you to this entry in 5.2.1's
/usr/src/UPDATING:
20030925:
Configuring a system to use IPFILTER now requires that PFIL_HOOKS
also be explicitly configured. Previously this dependency was
magically handled through some cruft in net/pfil.h; but that has
been removed. Building a kernel with IPFILTER but not PFIL_HOOKS
will fail with obtuse errors in ip_fil.c.
(It's a good idea to look in /usr/src/UPDATING before updating your
system.)
Cheers,
Paul.
