network problems with yesterday's current

Running current of Mar. 25 at about 23:45 UTC.

I am having an odd problem with my on-board bge. I can do most things
without problems. I ssh into remote systems via IPv4 or IPv6. I can
browse the web without issues and use finger. DNS is fine.

I can't "fetch" a file.  
% fetch http://www.bytelabs.org/pb-browser-0.4.tgz
fetch: http://www.bytelabs.org/pb-browser-0.4.tgz: Connection refused
I can get this file with my browser, though. fetch(1) also fails in the
same way for FTP access.

This is an example, but any fetch(1) seems to fail this way. Also, my
gnome-weather-applet also fails over bge0.

When I am connected by my wireless (ath0), this all works fine.

I turned off my firewall and ran tcpdump. It saw NO packets when I tried
this (tcpdump -vp tcp). The interface shows no errors.

I suspect that the same thing was happening with a Mar. 19 kernel, but
I can't absolutely confirm this right now.

I don't have a clue of where to even look for this. Any suggestions
would be appreciated.
