(Adding netfilter mailing list. See http://marc.info/?t=120933809600001&r=1&w=2
for the initial problem description.)
Further to this, it's looking like there's a nf_conntrack issue. Having
placed similar printks in the netfilter code, I see the ipv4_confirm()
hook normally returning 1 (NF_ACCEPT), but then decides to return 0
(NF_DROP) and no ping replies.
-bash-3.1# cat /proc/net/stat/ip_conntrack
entries searched found new invalid ignore delete delete_list insert insert_failed drop early_drop icmp_error expect_new expect_create expect_delete
00000110 000000e2 000001c6 000003bb 00000140 00000000 000002ab 0000023a 0000034a 0000005f 00000000 00000000 0000000f 00000000 00000000 00000000
insert_failed increments when there aren't any ping replies.
The other interesting thing (though I'm not sure if it's really
related or helps) is:

Note how the conntrack entry stays as "unreplied" and the packet and
byte counters stop incrementing with each ping packet sent. Maybe
something's missing from the local IP output path to confirm the
entry?
