Hi,

So this bug has been known and ignored by upstream for more than
four years now, and there's at least three separate bugs tracking
it in the Debian BTS, including #652739, which after finally being
forwarded upstream, appears to have again just been ignored by them.

Both Redhat and Ubuntu are shipping patched versions that do not
have this problem, and I can't find any reports of regressions or
other problems they have seen, so could we please not be the only
distro where DHCP fails if you have hardware that does checksum
offloading ...

  Thanks! :)
  Ron
