I ran your error through the Cisco stack decoder. For the most part, 
it looks like a software bug that you hit after the router entered 
"some" condition.

There are several possible bugs for this error, but the decoder 
summarised it as a "software defect".

I suspect upgrading your IOS might fix the issue. Better still, 
unless you need a feature only available in IOS 12.4, I'd suggest 
you stick/downgrade to 12.3(20), as it's now GD.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Mark.
