Unfortunately the traffic is encrypted by IPSEC, so there is not much,
one can see in the tcpdump output:

18:33:12.872804 IP (tos 0x10, ttl  64, id 3341, offset 0, flags [none], length: 104) blob > 192.168.1.1: ESP(spi=0xf50f7c30,seq=0x69)
18:33:12.876106 IP (tos 0x0, ttl  64, id 43795, offset 0, flags [none], length: 152) 192.168.1.1 > blob: ESP(spi=0x0fe09ce6,seq=0x11a)
18:33:12.971780 IP (tos 0x10, ttl  64, id 3343, offset 0, flags [none], length: 104) blob > 192.168.1.1: ESP(spi=0xf50f7c30,seq=0x6a)

and so on...

The patch fixes the core dumps, thanks. I think the other thing is a 
bug or misconfiguration in my router. I will try to track this down
later.

PS: Sorry for the late reply. Weather and snow have been too good here :-)
