I cannot changed the MTU by design since I need to have the gretap
interface be part of an Ethernet bridge.

I know people can be busy, I am just trying to push things forward.
Original bug is there :
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14837
Patch is available here :
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=24332
This patch fixes my issue since either packets get fragmented or an ICMP
error packet is sent back to the sender.
Regards,
Benoit
PS: Congrats to Herbert Xu which fixes a bug in gretap before I had the
time to report it (was about the broadcast addr which was incorrect).
