There was another reference count bug in the arp state machine
that was fixed in 2.6.14 (or maybe 2.6.15, I don't remember precisely)
If you can reproduce this bug in 2.6.15 or later, it might be something new.
Otherwise, you probably just need to upgrade the kernel.

The Intel driver and hardware is some of the best, so I doubt that that
is the problem.
