We've introduced a number of changes (x_tables) that haven't received testing on all architectures yet. I will try to reproduce the bug on my debian ppc box here. This is not meant as a fix, but you might try it to narrow down the problem: Try recompiling iptables on your own, and report back whether that works or not.
