Nope, because it happens on several interfaces in "router A", spread 
across two line cards. Interfaces are in routed mode with several 
subinterfaces configured; there's a clear pattern in the subinterfaces 
that are fully hardware switched and subinterfaces that are partially 
software switched. There's at least one subinterface where I can 
manipulate the config; when adding PBR it goes to fully hardware 
switched, when removing PBR it goed to partially in software. And 
exactly the same configs always work fully hardware switched in router B.

My conclusion from that, is that swapping interfaces (which I interpret 
in this case as swapping the transceivers) can't possibly make a difference.

Thanks for your thought though.
