No difference at all. They are both built using the 'standard' Gentoo
ebuild system. In the kernel config I have both
CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=y and CONFIG_IP6_NF_IPTABLES=y, as well as all
the targets set to yes, all the parts of netfilter which I use are
built into the kernel, none are built as modules.
