iptables on fedora issue: security raw nat[FAILED]filter

I'm having a similar problem as here:

This is a new Fedora 14 32-bit node. When I issue /etc/init.d/iptables restart I get this:

iptables: Flushing firewall rules:                         [  OK  ]
iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: security raw nat[FAILED]filter 
iptables: Unloading modules:                               [  OK  ]

When I issue iptables -L -n -v I get:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 186 packets, 13395 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 135 packets, 23047 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination  

There is no /etc/sysconfig/iptables or a /etc/sysconfig/iptables.save, so there are no saved rules interfering here. I've tried a reboot and the issue is still happening. Grrr.

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

If it helps, when I issue /etc/init.d/iptables status I get:

On a side note, it seems that start/stop/restart all seem to work right. I just don't like seeing FAILED. :(
