We check for the kernel version and assume that all Linux kernels with version
2.6.39 have the newer inverted logic.
BTW, can you add a comment to the commit log pointing out that any
distro that backports the netfilter --ctdir "fix" to a pre-2.6.39 kernel
will need to also carry a patch against libvirt that changes
ebiptablesDriverProbeCtdir to detect their kernel version as being
"corrected"?
