It seems to be driver related. Anything tg3/bcm broadcom based.
 
A bridged setup doesn't exhibit the problem.
 
A routed setup has tcp/udp checksum problems. You can make routed work by building gre tunnels on top of the eth0/vifx.1 virtual point-to-point links. These extra encapsulation seems to avoid whatever the checksum offload problem is. Ugly but it works.
 
Sorry I don't have anything better to offer.
