I will do that. I think it is strange that tcpdump is recognizing the
stripped packets as GRE packets. They really shouldn't show up in the
trace I performed at all - they should be recognized as tcp port 80 packets
after ip_wccp takes care of them. Perhaps (by some strange problem - are
there different versions of the ip_wccp.c floating around?) ip_wccp is not
stripping the first 24 bytes, but instead stripping the last 24 bytes (or
some out of the middle?). Can someone who has this working do a quick
tcpdump like this:

tcpdump 'ip proto 47'

and let me know if it complains about truncated-ip - 24 bytes missing.

I will also run the -x dump you suggested and try to see which bytes it is
stripping.
