I think that Justin was debugging some userspace datapath[*] problems
late last week.  I remember discussing fixes with him.  It looks like he
didn't send out the fix before he left on vacation, which means that
they weren't quite ready yet.  I imagine he'll finish it up and send it
up next Monday when he gets back.

[*] This is userspace datapath-specific, right?  The only place you
    mentioned the userspace datapath was in the Subject.

In the meantime, I apologize for the inconvenience.  The "single
datapath" model still needs some fine-tuning, but it's necessary to make
the new tunneling model work properly.
