Here's the actual bug report:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=168166

Ended up being a userspace thing, maybe. But still makes me wonder what
change actually broke things. It must have been something soon after 2.6.13.
And there's still tcpdump, which doesn't seem to go into the problem mode
when I test it now, except that nothing should have changed in the
kernel/tcpdump/libpcap versions. Blah.
