hm! all interfaces (host and guest) are configured to a mtu of 9000 (except for 
lo which is always 64k). there's no serial/ppp involved, so i can not set a mru 
(for non-p2p links the 'mru' kindof should be the mtu of the respective other 
interface of traffic?). i found no way to configure slirp (in qemu) itself 
except for the DEFINEs in the if.h.
i tried all available nic-emulations, then continued with virtio, which is one 
that accepts the mtu settings (and sending jumbo frames out does work). the 
other nics where jumbo frames can be configured do not behave differently.
i'm not aware of any (canonical) parameters to set a max size for received 
packets - i guess when implementing an interface one could decide to truncate 
according to the mtu (but i guess i would not and i would also argue against 
it, i guess when i need a mru size for fixed receive-buffers (which i'd try to 
avoid) i'd assume the mtu). afaik even with ppp mru is just used to signal a 
max mtu to set to the peer.
