Unfortunately the only interface that is mentioned by name anywhere

All of the nat/dnat and other horrible hacks are based on IP addresses.

Damn. Not referencing the bridge interfaces at all stopped our host from
going down in flames when we passed it a few packets. These are two
of the oopses we got from it. Whilst the kernel here is .35 we got the
same issue from a range of kernels. Seems related.

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.
Just another reference 3.5 months ago:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter-devel/msg17239.html

<waves hands around shouting "I have a reproducible test case for this and don't mind patching and crashing the machine to get it fixed">

Attempted to add netfilter-devel to the cc this time.
