This turned out to a problem with having 'pf' installed on the 
freebsd target.  I mis-assumed it had to do with the stack itself, but
turning on fragment re-assembly in pf 'fixed' the problem:

scrub in all random-id no-df fragment reassemble

Another -current box I just tested against linux re-assembles fine.

I was reasonably sure from doing some searches on the net that this
was a freebsd problem, but it turned out not to be.

Thanks for looking!
