I did actually, you're the one who didn't read what I wrote.

Quoting from my original email:

"This is with the following kernel version:

Linux fe2 2.6.22-16-generic #1 SMP Mon Jan 26 00:07:52 GMT 2009 i686 
GNU/Linux

which is quite "old", but when I looked at current git net-2.6 I think 
that this problem is still there."
