unless i'm mistaken, it only supports ipchains compatibility mode, so
you end up using iptables anyway.

did you compile them? i dont know about irc, but the masq_ftp module is
part of the kernel 2.4. kernel. i dont know about 2.4.7-10, though.
anyway, to see if it's there, go to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ and look
there. i think the modules will be under kernel/net/ipv4/netfitler/.

please explain what exactly you want to do, and where you fail, so we
can help you better.

i think you should use iptables, as they are technically superior.
btw, interesting tidbit: i compiled on the weekend the ftp connection
tracking and masq modules on 2.4.10 kernel, and got instant NULL pointer
dereference and kernel crash. not very nice.
i haven't had time to debug further (or try with a 2.4.13[-ac] kernel,
my next step), but i'm curious if anyone got it to work?
