I haven't been following this thread, but I just noticed that I have TCPv4
bad checksums in my logs ... and this is on Ethernet. I thought this VJ
compression was used on PPP links only? There were also messages saying
"sending pkt_too_big to self" or something like that.

If that means something to somebody, I can provide more information. Oh,
this is on 2.1.108ac2 with 3c509.
