The simple patch to correct the parsing of quoted parameter.

iptables-restore can't parse the parameter which is
bundled with double-quotation character("").

for instance, the following text data was registered
by "iptables-restore -n" command.

    *filter
    -A OUTPUT -m string --string "FOOO" --algo bm -j ACCEPT
    COMMIT

Then, the contents of registration are checked by
"iptables-save" command, 

    $ iptables-save |grep string
    -A OUTPUT -m string --string "--st" --algo bm --to 65535 -j ACCEPT

the parameter "FOO" is corrupted obviously to the one
parameter before,

This seems the simple bug. I tried to make the simple
patch. If this patch become to help to you even a little,
I'm happy.

regards,
