Very odd - I am seeing ICMPs generated:-
# /usr/sbin/tcpdump -n -i eth0 icmp
tcpdump: listening on eth0
15:26:12.146557 192.168.50.119 > 172.16.28.33: icmp: 10.0.2.2
unreachable - need to frag (mtu 1450) [tos 0xc0]

but no extra chatter in dmesg despite ensuring dmesg -n is turned up. 
Checking the module object file shows the extra log messages in there,
so its not me doing something completely silly.

Putting a 
  iptables -t mangle -A FORWARD -p tcp --syn -j TCPMSS \
	--clamp-mss-to-pmtu

in appears to fix things for me.

	Nigel.
