I checked my dkms modules and found the package xtables-addons-dkms is
at the latest recommended level for ubuntu trusty, i.e. 2.3-1. I googled

Although I would have liked to retain my geoip support, it isn't any
good if I can't run shorewall without it crashing my system! I purged
the package but keept xtables-addons-common (I really need ipsets) and
libxtables10.

shorewall works fine now!

I suppose I could inject xtables 2.4 into my system as a test, but I'll
wait for a while to see whether it appears in the standard repositories
soon.

I hope this tale is helpful. Thanks for your advice, Tom.
Thanks Brian,

Bill -- could this be your issue as well?

GeoIP was one of my first suspicions and I commented it out of the rules:
?COMMENT drop romania, russia, ukraine
# drop Romania, Russian Federation, and Ukraine
#DROP   inet:^[RO,RU,UA]        fw
?COMMENT

but it turns out (from your bug link, Brian) that the culprit is 
iptable_rawpost:

[0:root@jabba modprobe]$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist.conf
blacklist iptable_rawpost
blacklist ip6table_rawpost
install iptable_rawpost /bin/false
install ip6table_rawpost /bin/false

'shorewall start' works WITH GeoIP.

Many thanks to all,
Bill
