I didn't know hme(4) have checksum offload related issues. When I
tried the same rule as PR I also noticed that Rx UDP packet was
dropped. However I couldn't reproduce it with pf. You can easily use
identical rule with small modification(flags S/SA instead of flags S).
I'm not familiar with ipf internals so I'm not sure what caused
the issue. Given that pf works well I guess there would be somthing
in ipf that needs more attention.

Remko, would you retry it with pf on sparc64?
