Ah, I guess I should have asked, is the kernel which exhibits a
problem running big-endian or little-endian?  The checksum function
which may be failing has both endian dependencies and a bunch of corner
cases related to the alignment of the packet data in memory.  I was
wondering which branch of the endian #ifdefs needs to be stared at.
