It now appears to be working for me. Perhaps one of the kernel updates
I've done has fixed it, or perhaps I was mistaken about the
problem. (I first noticed the thing because I was getting packets in
on the supposedly down interface.)

For the moment perhaps we should close this -- if it starts happening
for me again I'll try to be more careful about figuring out the
circumstances so I can reproduce it.
