There isn't much more than what you say is happening to your setup.  
MPLS packets go out OK but the receiving system locks up tight when the 
packet is receive.  Note one can only assume its on receive because the 
system is inaccessible after the packet leaves the source system.

My next step is to turn on some debugging dumps on the receive side.  My 
guess on the problem is issues with skbuff since that is where the major 
changes are.
