Yes, i have seen that to. But there remains one problem for Irex:
If it is indeed running Linux, it is GPL licensed, and they can not change that. GPL allows you to internally use your modified software without publishing the sources, but as soon as the binary software is public (like in the Iliad being sold to someone who is not from Irex ;-) ), you are forced to publish the sources. And in Germany and i think in other countries too, the GPL is already acknowledged as a valid software license. Don't have the articles yet, but just try a quick google for "netfilter" and "gpl violation". (most home routers are running on a Linux OS)
But, IANAL.
