The code should not print anything unless debugging is enabled. I'm
assuming that no one will enable debugging unless they are in a controlled
environment. And when debugging, it would be bad to have most of the
messages dropped. Is this still not ok in your view?

I see that conntrack-acct is 2.6 only. I'd rather not lose 2.4
compatibility. Should I:
1) Put separate 2.4 and 2.6 patches in p-o-m, one of which uses
conntrack-acct and one of which doesn't. (Ugly.)
2) Only submit a 2.6 patch to you and maintain my 2.4 patch outside p-o-m.
(Clunky.)
3) Ask for conntrack-acct to be made 2.4 compatible. (Work for you.)
