I cannot reproduce this on upgrades or with the latest 12.10 iso.
However, the problem is clear: when ufw is run and iptables fails to add
the ufw-test-caps chain, ufw traces back. Ufw should not be tracing back
in the situation, but instead exit with error and report the problem.
Commits r795 and r796 fix this by only running the capabilities checks
when needed and not tracing back during those tests.

I am testing packages now and will report back when done.
