Oddly enough, I don't see this 'problem' in the real world.  And FreeBSD =
is far from being alone in the always-set-DF bit.

The only place this bites is when you run into tiny shops with homegrown =
firewalls configured by people who don't understand networking or =

themselves off the network.  I'm certainly no worse off for not being =
able to talk to them.
