RTM_LOSING happens when TCP segments are lost, look for packet loss

somewhere. The usual suspects are bad cables, bad connectors, mismatched

duplex etc. I had it with bge(4) nics onboard Supermicro H8SSL boards,

associated with errors showing up in netstat -ni - in that case moving

to PCI-X em(4) sidestepped the issue.
People who aren't running routed would see these messages, if they

happened, by looking at 'route monitor'.

If enough packets are lost to prevent ARP from getting through, you

might see that.
