Hi all,

I feel obligated to share update, to close the issue:

Nothing to do with kernel/qemu etc.. Seem that hidden Docker NAT/Masquerade
rules don't play nice with VNET...

Description of the problem as given originally still is valid, but root
cause is as above...

Apologies for wasting everyone's time and thanks for all the inputs.
