I think this is a side effect of the loopback interface not processing 
checksums by default.  I will be more worried if the checksum errors 
also occur on ge00, but am not ruling out problems with the unaligned 
access patches yet.

As an aside, I've noticed very occasional issues connecting to 
(IPv4-only) sites using both Sugarland and the 3.6.10 release, which 
gets fixed when the connection is retried.  I have been unable to repeat 
this on demand, however.
