is this bug still present?  We're about half a month later in kernel
versions...

please report back to this bug if you still have that problem with recent
(2.4.21, 2.4.22) kernels

Yep the bug is still present.
I got the most stable versions on 2.4.20, the last box i created had a new 
kernel and i switched back to 2.4.20.


(the only try would be replacing all 'vmalloc(x)' calls in
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c to 'kmalloc(x,GFP_KERNEL)' (and change
the
'vfree()' calls to 'kfree()').
)

I tried that by the way, it did not fix the problem and it is still absolutely 
not reproduceable, it happens or doesn't happen.
Might work fine for 3 months, might crash after 3 months and constantly on for 
10 days.

I sometimes had the problem that it crashed on bootup (when script is loaded), 
only way to get in was to suppress the runlevel and to disable (OR CHANGE!) the 
script.
Sometimes i was able to boot up normally when i removed the psd match, but
it's
not related to the psd match. 
well i am clueless;)
