Well, it worked when 2.6.26 was the latest kernel. I just had the set of
patches from my repo applied to the kernel.

      http://hg.natisbad.org/migrate2_patches_kernel/

If you want to, you just have to clone the repo and do an hg update to
a version intended for 2.6.26. You will also have to recompile a
version of UMIP with the patches from the same date:

That's *very* weird you cannot reproduce it after the ulimit. Can you do
the following *in the same* terminal:

# mipd
segfault
# ulimit -c unlimited
# mip6d                    | repeat till it segfaults
^c                         |

and provide the whole output. 

One thing I would be interested in is having mip6d straced in order to
get some idea of where the segfault happens.

One thing to keep in mind: when umip segfaults, it leaves many things
behind (tunnel, policies, ...) as you noticed. When mip6d is restarted
after that, it does not like that and may fail.

Cheers,

a+
