[ doh! vmx(4)/em(4) -- not ..(8)!  sigh, brain rot. ]
yup, I was suspecting vmx(_4_) was doing something like that.
With our limited resources, our options for now are ...
   - live with vmx(4) NICs with 4K MTU
or - switch to em(4) NICs with 9k MTU.
Unless there's some other benefit to using em(4) NICs in
our ESXi VMs, we'll probably stick with using vmx NICs.
