I did, fortunately some other bug prevents this from happening,
packets are simply dropped somewhere.

Right, just run this

tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10
              u32 match ip tos 0 0 flowid 1:1
	      action mirred egress redirect dev ifb1
tc filter add dev ifb1 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10
              u32 match ip tos 0 0 flowid 1:1
	      action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0


Anyways, I give up. Last time I've been running after you trying
to fix the many bugs you leave behind. Ever noticed that whenever
you add some new code it's someone else following up with tons of
small bugfix patches having a hard time trying to figure out the
actual intent. I'll just duplicate the code for my purpose, so
much easier.
