You have compiled your kernel with NETFILTER DEBUGGING, turn it off
and it will disappear.

Sorry about that, it IS a bug :(
It has been fixed and i will put out a new version tonight.
The problem was that packets passed through non-work-conserving qdiscs
were delivered to dev_queue_xmit_nit twice and somewhere there a NULL
pointer reference occured.

PS: In the future please send bugreports directly to me or at least CC

Bye,
