Debian 2.1 (the latest stable) picked up an initial version of my patches[*], and so does not packet loss when flood pinging the loopback.
bagpuss# ping -f localhost PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes . --- localhost ping statistics --- 6293 packets transmitted, 6292 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0.2/0.7/46.5 ms
