HTB: dequeue bug (8), report it please!

Well just received that on 2.4.21-pre6mz [I know I should upgrade, I just
haven't succeeded in compiling in the patches I require into 2.4.23] this
is a Pentium 100, 40 MB ram, routing through 3 ethernet devices, with
iptables firewall and HTB speed delimiting (I've seen the bug at least
thrice now in a matter of minutes).  It's dealing with a constant more or
less 2-5 mbit/s traffic flow (radio link on one ethernet device) which
uses around 15-30% of the CPU.  With somewhere like 250 HTBs (script
generated) and a 40kb /etc/sysconfig/iptables.  So the system is most
definitely severely stressed.  However no memory/processor issues reported
to date so this was most likely HTB internal bug caused and not hardware.  
[the htb's have bfifo's hanging of every single one of them]

Is this known and fixed in 2.4.24?  Is it dangerous?

Cheers,
MaZe.
