The kernel disables rp_filter by default, but the startup scripts
provided by some distributions enable it.

The practical answer is : anyone who experienced the problem once does.
Trust me.
The theoretical answer is : anyone using iproute should, because it is a
common issue documented in the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control
HOWTO, and probably elsewhere. I myself hesitated to mention it and did
it only for completeness because it could not be the only cause of your
problem : tcpdump would have seen the replies even though the kernel had
dropped them.
