I just tried the last openwrt-kamikaze trunk with the svn v1109 of batman on ubnt NS2. Batmand die as follows:
 
 root@OpenWrt:~# batmand -d 4 -g 5000 ath2

I think it would be intersting to find out why batmand dies. May be you could
produce a core dump ?
Indeed, we have a problem if the batman daemon dies without telling the
module. What about adding a keep alive + timeout in the module ?
