Turns out this is IPv6.

Thought I would run this thru strace and see if the module is what is
causing the segfault. Oddly, it actually started. Then tried it
without strace, and even odder, it loaded successfully. But, this
thing really does not like my system. Took over 2 minutes to load on a
2x400, 128M system, using 100%  of both processors for 30-40 seconds
and brought the system to its knees.  Unbearably, cold molasses slow.
Now I used previous milestones that were nowhere near this slow. I
suspect maybe it is something in the opt_flags I am using (or not
using):

 optflags: i386 -O3 -m486 -fno-strength-reduce

Looks pretty simple. Maybe an SMP thing? Any clues?
