Reminds me of what I encountered recently with two virtual
machines at my provider. I haven't further dug into this, as
I didn't check `arp -an`, but what I saw was switching an IP
address from hosts A to B resulted in pings from host C to arrive
at A. Host C said they got lost while tcpdump showed incoming
packets at A although they should have gone to B.
