NAT-T also appears broken in latest Fedora Core 2 kernel:

2.6.7-1.494.2.2

Aug  8 19:37:51 kbantoft pluto[3154]: "kb-to-bp-38" #3: sent QI2, IPsec SA established {ESP=>0x489df436 <0xb7093be3 NATOA=0.0.0.0}
Aug  8 19:38:16 kbantoft pluto[3154]: packet from ##.##.109.70:4500: recvfrom ##.##.109.70:4500 has no Non-ESP marker

Not sure what change this is stemming from, but I'm reporting it now so 
others who run into know that we're aware.

I've tried with Herbert's latest fix, and it doesn't make a difference for 
this case.
