Scott, please keep in mind that the, ah, millions of us using OpenVZ or Virtuozzo are also unable to use ipsets due to limitations in the virtualisation among other things.

Sort of a good / bad situation there. Generally virtuzzo wont actually let you load large policies anyway, it will exit out or just start dropping firewall rules without telling you.
