Depends on your network and weather or not you care to be rfc compliant. 
I see real fragmented traffic all the time. I choose not to block it. Because 
it would break stuff that our customers need to use. So i just keep an eye on 
fragmentation and watch fro abuse of it. We host 125,000 web sites, and use 
iptables on our Firewalls (8).
