Open Stack

That's a great guess :D I did manage to figure this out earlier and it
took me a day of understanding OVS and following datapath/flow dumps
until I realized that the non-standard configuration I had was causing
the creation of a GRE tunnel from the machine to itself (on another
IP).

Thanks!
