I'm not running any ipsec, or iptables.  I'm not sure what to look for 
out of netstat -s.  (See attached.)  I didn't try other TCP apps, since 
it seemed to be down in the kernel (no ACK coming back).

That's what I had hoped, and I've trimmed it down to bare metal now.  
Originally I thought it was just related to bridging, and I totally 
removed that from the equation.

Sure!  See attached.  It's got two directories, with the output from all 
mentioned commands (and route -n) along with xenU.pcap and xen0.pcap.  
To me, it just looks like xenU is just plain ignoring the SYN,ACK that 
comes in.  :(
