The IP multicast message would need fragmentation though if the hardware MTU 
were too small.  If fragmentation wasn't occurring, then getting a local length 
error might be expected.  I'm not familiar with the IPoIB CM code (looking at it 
now), but I wouldn't expect the CM related code to affect multicast traffic.
