Ok that's unusual.
Never seen before.
I suppose that happens with unmodified dpdk 1.7?
I do run acl_autotest with at least 256M of huge-pages as ACL is quite memory 
consuming  and, as I remember, requires at least 2X32M areas of contiguous 
hugepages.
But in that case (not enough hugepages) it should just fail with something like:
ACL: allocation of 25953152 bytes on socket -1 for ACL_acl_ctx failed
Any other details, so I can try to reproduce it:
arch you build/run it on?
amount of free memory in the system?
Wonder what pstack says?

Thanks
Konstantin
