Well, I said "most probably"...

The actual problem was meanwhile identified: shorewall happened to
overwrite the queueing discipline of wmaster0 with pfifo_fast. I found
the magic knob to tell shorewall to no longer do this (at least until I
want to manage traffic control that way...), but I still wonder if it is
an acceptable situation. Currently, the user can intentionally or
accidentally screw up the stack this way.

PS: Tests performed on a 2.6.17 kernel, but I don't see a reason why
newer kernels should be immune.
