I just booted 2.6.38-11.47 and (although the problem is intermittent so it's hard to be sure) I see zero loss in a traceroute immediately after booting, compared to ~75% loss on 3.0.0-10, and general irc and web usage is blessedly stable. So it looks pretty conclusively like a software problem, specifically a kernel rather than userspace, and a recent regression.
