There were two more follow on commits in stable related to this.
I recommend merging 2.6.38.6 which includes these.

The problem still exists in the current 2.6.38.6.  Backing out 5f1c356a
still solves the problem there.

I have not yet tried anything outside the stable-2.6.38.y tree, but it
seems like these same changes are present there, and it's unlikely that
other releases will work any better.

noah

Is this unique to the tap interfaces or does bridging multicast
not work for all devices?
