Then I assume eth0/forward_shared is 1.

Yes, no ARP flux expected, until you use 65.88.136.62 to
talk to other hosts on the LAN through both eth0 and eth1. You have to
tell us whether this is a persistent problem or happens in rare cases.
Also you better to monitor the ARP tables with arp -an. You can also show
us all IP addresses and routes in director or everything is shown in the
first posting?
