Very likely (though I'm not a networking expert at all). In 11.4 (further
improved subsequently [2.6.38-rc, not yet committed] following a recent
discussion on netdev, with a possibility of pulling this back into 11.4 once
sufficiently verified) I sync-ed checksum behavior with what pv-ops has been
doing for a while, which particularly results in 

        if (rx->flags & NETRXF_csum_blank)
            skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_PARTIAL;
        else if (rx->flags & NETRXF_data_validated)
            skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY;
        else
            skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;

replacing the cited code sequence in netfront.

So testing with the current 11.4 kernel in Dom0 and DomU-s would certainly be
quite helpful.
