Sorry, we've never ever had a single report about this error message.

It basically means that somebody else has already registered for the
SO_GET_ORIGDST socket option.  I have no idea who else could be the
culprit.  Maybe you have loaded (or statically linked into the kernel)
one of the backwards compatibility modules for ipchains or ipfwadm?

Also, please make sure that the kernel and the modules are out of the
same build, otherwise you might experience all kinds of inconsistencies
