I experienced a similar problem with kamailio and packet fragmentation on a
Fedora 17 (32bit with its stock kernel) and kamailio 4.0.1:
Some mobile softphones(I think it was Zoiper or CSipSimple on Androids)
were configured to negotiate a whole lot of codecs which made the invites
have a huge sdp that made the packet too big. Normally OS should deal with
it but the calls were not going through. I am sorry I dont have more
details, I just told the user to use 2-3 codecs and problem was solved.
Maybe kamailio has some kind of upper limit buffer equal to the MTU? I am
not familiar with so low leveled details though.

Bill.
