First up, its pretty difficult to replicate problems
on older (kernel development is pretty fast these days,
so 2.6.10 is pretty old by now) and customised kernels.
So it would be totally excellent if you could test
this out on a new kernel, say 2.6.13 which seems fresh
off the press.

It seems like there might be a bit of a race in the 
drop entry code. I have a vague memory of a patch floating around
for this. I'll have a look into the netdev and lvs-users
archves, and in git, but I have to run off to a meeting now.

Lastly, was the box doing anything particularly exciting at
the time? Lots of load? System backup in progress? That
kind of stuff.
