No, it's Debian Wheezy inside Debian Wheezy; though the outer system
is a somewhat messy one (I installed Wheezy before it was stable, and
compiled my own ALSA drivers and a few other things).

But it could well be that same issue, as it seems to involve NAT.
What's the policy on backporting patches to tests onto 2.7?
