In a nutshell: works great! We ran -rc2 with the patch on our test server overnight w/stress testing, then 3 days on a production web server, and finally we deployed the patched -rc2 on all public-accessable servers. The "incomplete arp problem" never showed up. (Now that 2.4.29 is out, we're going to do an upgrade across the board...)
