Right.  For me:

- 2.6.9-rc3 (installed 8th Oct) died with dst cache overflow on 29th November
- 2.6.10-rc2 (booted 29th Nov) died with the same on 19th January
- 2.6.11-rc1 (booted 19th Jan) appears to have the same problem, but
  it hasn't died yet.

IPv4 filter targets: ACCEPT, DROP, REJECT, LOG
	using: state, limit & protocol

IPv4 nat targets: DNAT, MASQ
	using: protocol

IPv4 mangle targets: ACCEPT, MARK
	using: protocol

IPv6 filter targets: ACCEPT, DROP
	using: protocol

IPv6 mangle targets: none

(protocol == at least one rule matching tcp, icmp or udp packets)

IPv6 configured native on internal interface, tun6to4 for external IPv6
communication.

IPv4 and IPv6 forwarding enabled.
IPv4 rpfilter, proxyarp, syncookies enabled.
IPv4 proxy delay on internal interface set to '1'.

Running zebra (for ipv6 route advertisment on the local network only.)

Network traffic-wise, 2.6.11-rc1 has this on its public facing
interface(s) in 8.5 days.
