How is STATIC_ANALYSIS defined in config.h?

    $ grep STATIC_AN config.h
    #define STATIC_ANALYSIS 0

If it's not 0, then you must have one of these two envvars set:

  test -n "$CCC_ANALYZER_ANALYSIS$COVERITY_BUILD_COMMAND" && echo oops

How is sa_assert defined for you?

    $ grep -C3 sa_assert src/internal.h
    # if STATIC_ANALYSIS
    #  undef NDEBUG /* Don't let a prior NDEBUG definition cause trouble.  */
    #  include <assert.h>
    #  define sa_assert(expr) assert (expr)
    # else
    #  define sa_assert(expr) /* empty */
    # endif

With those, the net result in your file should be that
sa_assert is a no-op.

If you're still convinced that the segfault is due to that use
of sa_assert, please send me preprocessed output for that file, i.e.,

    cd src
    f=nwfilter_ebiptables_driver
    touch nwfilter/$f.c
    la=libvirt_driver_nwfilter_la
    lo=$la-$f.lo
    make AM_CPPFLAGS='-E -dD' $lo
    mv .libs/$la-$f.o $f.i

The cpp-preprocessed output is now in

    src/nwfilter_ebiptables_driver.i

You should be able to see that sa_assert expands to nothing:

    $ grep sa_assert $f.i
    #define sa_assert(expr)
