A patch has been sent to netdev a few hours ago. It needs more work,
especially testing (hint, hint) as I don't have a proven test case yet.

Please note:
- if you don't use a 8168evl (check your dmesg for the XID line emitted
  by the r8169 driver), you are not the experiencing the same bug.
- if you don't enable Tx checksum offload (distro/vendor dependent though
  disabled by default in the vanilla driver, see ethtool -k eth0,
  ethtool -K eth0 tx on sg on)), you are not the experiencing the same
  bug.
- if you are experiencing the same bug, 3.10-rc1 should work again
  after reverting e5195c1f31f399289347e043d6abf3ffa80f0005

If someone comes with a failing network capture and a working one, it will
save time. A 64 bytes (max) packet is not correctly transmitted.
