I suggest that you try to bring this to freebsd-net, I certainly don't
have the network skills to know what's going on, maybe someone can
provide more insight there which could help track this down (I can
certainly help as much as possible with the Xen part).

If not I will try to get a look, but I cannot tell when is that going to
happen, I've got my plate quite full right now.
