Comment (by coling):

 This is not a bug in PA but rather some sort of configuration problem with
 your capability support in your kernel.

 It's basically telling you that the process is not being allowed to drop
 it's privileges properly, and thus PA has to exit for security reasons.

 See http://linux.die.net/man/3/cap_set_proc for more info on the actual
 command that is failing.

 I'm not an expert on this by any stretch but I'd make sure that your
 /proc/ filesystem is mounted properly and is accessible to regular users
 etc.
