Maybe I miss something, but once more: this patch mentioned by Berck
Nash has been tested by at least two users, Berck himself, and
probably even more intensively by Michael Breuer, during af_packet
debugging. Both guys acknowledged it helped, so it can't be that bad.

I agree, as a short term fix, this patch is fine.

And I agree real problems might be deeper.
