I am not sure what causes it... but if you do a netstat -rn I am sure you will see that the route to your nic interface address is pointing to 127.0.0.1 instead of a mac address (as show below under [BEFORE]). Do a 'route delete [interface address]'... for instance in the example below... I type 'route delete 216.140.184.45'. Then ping the interface and run netstat -rn again and you will see (as shown below under [AFTER]) that the mac addy will appear and the machine will be happy.

But he seemed to think it was a larger issue with the dhclient script. I have had this problem on three different 3.3 machines on three COMPLETELY different networks and the one similarity between them was dhclient. Two of them were nat boxes on RR and one is a workstation. To reinforce this theory... on the nat boxes that have the problem... its only the interfaces that are getting dhcp via dhclient that have the problem. My point is... the above is a temporary solution. The following message will completely flood my dmesg buffer until the machine stops responding... arplookup 127.0.0.1 failed: could not allocate llinfo arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 127.0.0.1rt anybody have any permanent solutions??
