It's provided by IBM with their ServeRAID CD, and not available in
source as far as I can discover. The RAID hardware uses Adaptec chips
and I think ipssend was written by them.

I was running Ubuntu's 2.6.28-13-server, but have reverted to their
2.6.27-10-server, that being the latest Ubuntu-provided version on which
ipssend works. The patch which apparently introduced the regression is
for 2.6.27-rc9, which is quite old. The regression was a year ago, and
although I've found quite a few people who have the same problem, I
haven't found any indication of the problem having been previously
reported or bisected, so it's likely the latest version still has the
problem. I am happy to try the latest version of you want.
