What is the output of:

modinfo xpp | grep version

if this is something of the sort of 'r3495' then you indeed have an
older version of the driver where BRI support has not been matuire
enough and specifically leds display was not as it is today. In current
version (e.g: the one in zaptel 1.2.18/1.4.3) you will always see an
orange LED for NT or green led for TE on the port.

Please get the version of bristuff from:

http://updates.xorcom.com/astribank/bristuff/
http://updates.xorcom.com/astribank/bristuff/bristuff-0.3.0-PRE-1y-g-xr1.tar.gz

At least until we see a new version of bristuff.

and also see:

Also, for the sake of those who will see the messages in a search:

This message comes from chan_zap when a span is down. If a span has
pri_{cpe,net} signalling or bri_{cpe,net} signalling (bristuff BRI ptp)
then you'll get those messages for spans that are down. If the
signalling is bri_{cpe,net}_ptmp they'll be debug messages.
