Pump on FC2T1? (SE Linux breaks UDP checksum?)

I have tracked this down further and discovered that it is the SE Linux
stuff that is messing up pump. I have found a newer version of pump now and
I'm going to try it.
However, I have to say that the way it fails is not intuitive to me. When
pump (dhcp client) sends out the discover packet (with a SE Linux enabled
kernel), the packet actually goes out, it just fails because the UDP
checksum is bad. This is not what I would expect out of SE Linux. I would
have thought that it would have returned some no-priviledge error to the
program (pump) indicating that it failed. Instead to just send out a broken
packet seems pretty weird.

Subject: Pump on FC2T1?
I have been trying to use pump (dhcp client) on FC2T1 and can't seem to
get it to work. I have tried it on FC1 and FC1 with a 2.6 Kernel and it
seems to work fine on them. When I'm running pump on FC2T1 I get
several messages from the dhcpd server that "5 bad udp checksums in 5
packets". I am going to keep digging into it, but I wanted to ask if
there is something that is a known problem that I'm unaware of? Any
pointers would be welcome.
Thanks
