I think diald does this with UDP packets - with TCP packets there are
other rather annoying issues/problems. However, the kernel's ipmasq
routines do it, so you'd think there'd be a way.

Well, not quite that, but what I added after a somewhat similar
problem to my /etc/diald/diald.options is:
impulse 30,0,0
This causes the link to always be kept up for at least 30 seconds.
