Please can you try backing out the following change and see if
that fixes it for the 169.254.x.x case:

http://xen.bkbits.net:8080/xeno-unstable.bk/diffs/xen/net/dev.c@xxxx?nav=index.html|src/.|src/xen|src/xen/net|hist/xen/net/dev.c

I suspect we're somehow killing 169.254.x.x packets even if
they're within the VMM rather than destined for the wire.

Thanks,
Ian
