I don't think it will actually do anything... (but I would be very
careful in case it *does*, and forces traffic to be CPU-switched).

Or enable netflow.  Which has its limitations, but if a SPAN session
is able to catch the traffic, netflow should be able to do so as well
(without TCP flags, of course, but "ip accounting" wouldn't catch
those either)
