Testing a more recent kernel is problematic.  A new bonding driver could 
be possible, assuming the code hasn't changed too much.

I just did another experiment.  Normally we boot via eth4 (which then 
becomes part of the bond  with eth5 at init time).  If I boot via eth6 
instead, it appears as though the problem doesn't show up.
