I've not used GRE in years, but one thing the Linux FW probably won't be
doing is the above (I don't think iptables has the capability). Not
knowing how GRE state is determined, I'm guessing that something might be
getting screwed up here.

Failing that, not knowing anything about the internals of GRE, I'd
probably start testing with pfctl disabled on fw1 then enable it and begin
adding rules one at a time until it breaks...

Of course, ethereal is your friend in these instances too.
