Do you mention the bug #1603, ARP packet queue?
I did see this problem also.
As I wrote as a comment, I think that no packets
should be dropped (at least not UDP). We'll need
some kind of a chained queue (or simply an array) 
for the packets to be resent. Perhaps I'll do
this within the next one or two weeks.

At the moment I'm testing my ethernet driver for
the Hitachi SH7615 (SH2-DSP with integrated
Ethernet MAC). If my employer agrees, I'll release
this driver to the public.

The driver runs with the current CVS version and
my own simple cooperative Multi-Threaded OS.
