Well, I tried sending an explanatory message to netdev, netfilter & cc'd 
to kvm, but it appears not to have made it to kvm or netfilter, and the 
cc to netdev has not elicited a response. My resend to netfilter seems 
to have dropped into the bit bucket also.

Is there anyone who can point me at the appropriate cage to rattle? I 
know it appears to be a netfilter issue, but I don't seem to be able to 
get a message to the list (and I am subscribed to it and have been 
getting mail for months) and I'm not sure who to pester. The other 
alternative is I just stop doing "that" and wait for it to bite someone 
else.

Cheers.
Brad
