fastforwarding and gif tunnel

Hi,

I have an esp/tunnel between two sites.

192.168.1.0/24 -> 192.168.1.1 gif - esp/tunnel - gif 192.168.101.1 ->
192.168.101.0/24

If I ping 192.168.101.1 from the 192.168.1.1 gateway everything works.
If I ping 192.168.101.2 from the 192.168.1.1 gateway everything works

But if I ping from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.101.2 it doesn't setup the
tunnel, nor does it use the tunnel when there.

I have narrowed it down to the use of fastforwarding on 192.168.1.1.
Without fastforwarding everything works, with fastforwarding it does
not.

Unfortunately I found out ICMP is not fastforwarded, so I didn't try a
TCP or UDP test.

I am running 7.0-RELEASE ( most recent, but it was broken before ).

Is fastforwarding supposed to be compatible with gif tunnels, or is this
a bug?

Peter
