 I think the problem occurs because you use ipfw tags. As far as I know,
 ipfw tags are stored as mbuf_tags(9). Dummynet uses mbuf tags too to
 mark it's own packets. However, I suspect that in dn_tag_get(), dummynet
 incorrectly assumes it is the only one using mbuf_tags(9).
 
 Could you please apply the following patch? Also, could you test whether
 removing "tag 1" from ipfw rules has any impact?
