Cisco 7606 RSP720 - no SVI bit/packets counters

Dean,

Probably good to move this over to cisco-nsp at puck.nether.net and answer 
the questions below over there.

What code is it?

Looks like a bug where the IDB counters are not being bumped on the SVI.

Is it L3 switching traffic through the SVI or L2 (intra vlan traffic 
between L2 ports)?
