This topic was raised in the freebsd-net,
    http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2007-July/014804.html
    http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2007-July/014808.html
and in the freebsd-current,
    http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2007-July/074837.html

The issue is understood, but it is currently not publicly known
how to deal with it.  But Andre Oppermann and Robert Watson are
aware of it and Andre told us that he will think how to fix it.

So, stay tuned for the fix ;))

Thank you.
