This is the result of a decision by the iptables upstream not to do
/etc/protocols look-ups when dumping rule-sets [1].  From v1.8.11,
iptables only dumps protocols by name if they appear in an internal
look-up table, and that table does not include IGMP.

I created a merge request [2] this evening to fix the failing tests.

I am reassigning this bug to arno-iptables-firewall.  Give me a shout if
you have more questions.

J.
