TAC did confirm that we were encountering CSCte89940.  As is seems to 
only be an issue for ping traffic to the RP we will not be upgrading 
imeediately but waiting for the next upgrade cycle so I can't comment 
regarding the fixed software.

Thanks all (especially) Antonio for your help.

Cheers

Ivan
