Subject: iproute2 / tbf with large burst seems broken again

Seems something related to the changes with resolution. I remember something 
like this happened before, and i report about it, but i am not able to find 
in mail archives. It seems packets queueing and not passing shaper, if burst 
is set to large value.

Kernel 2.6.30.4 was ok.
