It looks as if it was some compilier flag mismatch                              
causing some strange interaction. I am basically                                
linking iptables.o into a JNI (Java Native) wrapper,                            
i.e. a shared object, I had to change and get into                              
sync all the link flags.  Debugging indicated that the                          
iptables_targets was circular on the second call to                             
do_command(). I had initially "fixed" it by appending                           
to the end of the list in                                                       
register_targets vs prepending.  Rolling back to the                            
original code after fixing all the linker flags to                              
suit my app, it does not exhibit the problem now.                               

Sorry for assuming a source code bug.
