So, we've had this long-standing dhclient patch in Fedora:
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/rpms/dhcp/devel/dhcp-4.0.0-xen-checksum.patch
Herbert - any clue why this isn't upstream? That's quite surprising ...
I've confirmed that it's not in any of the upstream releases. However,
dhcp has a weird model where you have to pay a membership fee to have
access to the CVS repository or development mailing list?
I'm not sure what's the best way to proceed.

Ah, I see Rusty moved this to linux-netdev without cc-ing:

Are you basically just saying that guests with a "broken" dhclient
should manually disable rx checksum offload with ethtool? And that the
host should react by disabling tx offload on the tap interfacE?
