My method of testing has been to just do an "ls -lR" from a large
directory structure.  With txcsum set, it consistently locks up.  This
is on clients ranging from x86 linux, BSD, a sparc solaris2, and an hppa
HPUX machine.  If I turn off txcsum (i.e. ifconfig re0 -txcsum) I have
never had any problems.

I tried your program with txcsum and it just hangs.  Without txcsum, 
I'm not sure what the output here means, but this is what I got:
