Missing an added file when doing a check-in is a forgivable mistake, 
especially since Guido isn't the author and likely doesn't have as deep
of an understanding of the changes as the author does.  And, I do highly
appreciate that Guido is responding quickly to the problems.  The 
process with ipfilter still isn't perfect, but it's definitely an
improvement over the past.
