IPFilter, mpd/Netgraph problems on RELENG_4

Hi,

I am seeing a lot of ICMP Must Fragment packets with incorrect ICMP
checksums on a RELENG_4 box which holds up 40-60 PPTP (mpd/Netgraph) VPN
connections at any given time.  The peer understandably ignores the ICMP
packet with a bad checksum and never fragments the offending TCP packet,
effectively killing the connection after a while.

A major point is that I'm only seeing them on the interfaces NAT'ed by
ipnat.  Is anybody else having trouble with ICMP checkums with IPFilter
3.4.35 on a reasonably recent RELENG_4 box?
