Did you get any response from the vswitch folks?

Did this used to work? You say "(regression?)".

This seems more likely on first glance to be an issue with the vswitch
rather than with Xen or the kernel, unless you can reproduce with Linux
bridging too. In fact it is very unlikely to be a hypervisor issue (the
hypervisor isn't really involved in network traffic).

However it would still be useful to try the 4.1 hypervisor and 3.2
kernel from Wheezy if you can.

Thanks,
Ian.
