It seems the log was stripped by maillist.

AFAIR, I already saw similar report here.
This is V4 mapped IPv6 address ::ffff:239.77.124.213.
I guess application is trying to use setsockopt with IPV6_JOIN_GROUP
option. And since outgoing interface isn't specified, the kernel is
trying to determine it from routing table. But this mapped address
triggers assert in in6p_lookup_mcast_ifp() function. It seems to me,
that v4mapped addresses isn't supported in the multicast code. If you
remove KASSERT from in6p_lookup_mcast_ifp(), this address will be
treated as invalid later.
