No probs.

Those errors are from pluto and the user apps because the ipsec
driver is failing to load.

This is your problem,  ipsec is calling abort(),  yet there is no such
kernel function.  Try the attached patch.  Perhaps run a grep across
you openswan/linux tree for abort if this doesn't fix it.
