Ah OK, I thought it was related to the new compat code, but that isn't
the case. Your trace doesn't give much clues, except that it shows that
iptables dies with a SIGSEGV, which might be a bug in userspace or in
the kernel. Which was the last kernel that worked for you, and can you
try that version again to rule out userspace bugs?
