It's running 7-STABLE, but I'll take it to -CURRENT if this is fixed there.  I'm regretting more and more leaving -current for -release on my production routers.

What's the FreeBSD release?  Some of the 6.X releases had a problem
when an mbuf was fragmented into too many pieces that was later fixed
in the RELENG_6 branch (version 1.2.2.20).
