I have also reproduced this on Linus' latest 2.6.29-rc6 tree, using tc
version iproute2-ss071016 and a kernel config with all traffic control
features enabled.
The error reported by tc comes from the kernel-level check added by:
commit c1b56878fb68e9c14070939ea4537ad4db79ffae

tc: policing requires a rate estimator
Found that while trying average rate policing, it was possible to
request average rate policing without a rate estimator. This results
in no policing which is harmless but incorrect.
Since policing could be setup in two steps, need to check
in the kernel.

I got the same error when using the tc version iproute2-ss090115 built
this evening from the public git repository.
