I'm seeing the following:
bonding: caps=(0x1113a3, 0x1113ab) len=18192 data_len=18120 ip_summed=0
on a 2.6.34.5 based kernel originating from v6 tcp transmit (mtu 1280)
on a bonded device of tg3 (presumably with TSO6) and forcedeth
(presumably without TSO6).
I can't quite figure out what this truly means...
Help ;-)

Did it come with a kernel backtrace?
Thanks,

Actually your particular problem should be fixed by
commit 6afff0caa721211e8c04bdc7627ee3bff95bcb95
Author: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com>
Date: Wed Jun 16 14:18:12 2010 +0000
net: consolidate netif_needs_gso() checks
which went in after 2.6.34.
However, the fact that your feature bits show that bonding is
declaring TSO6 support without IPv6 checksum support also means
that the bonding feature computation is broken.
Thanks,
