Huh?

[root@spock root]# iptables -A OUTPUT -d 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 -jDROP
[root@spock root]#

Chances are you used -jdrop instead of -jDROP.
DROP is a builtin rule, so the library won't be there.

Please reopen if you can reproduce this with the correct syntax.

Also, the version shipped with 7.2 had a couple of bugs (nothing like this
though), you really want to install the errata package we released some weeks ago.
