Interesting.

   One 'ifdown eth0; sleep 10; ifup eth0' got it working again; the scp 
transfered 8
   more files before stalling out again.

   Then, a bunch of 'ifdown eth0; ifup eth0' (no sleep 10 between) had no 
effect.

   Then, a following ifdown/ifup with an intervening sleep let another 6 files
   through before locking up.

Will do in a bit, but as everything works fine with 2.6.13-rc1-git7 and earlier
kernels, I don't expect this will be the problem.
