Do you have a stray 'net.ipv4.ip_forward=0' or similar in
/etc/sysctl{.conf,.d}?
We also saw one instance of this problem, because the sysctls were
reloaded during the update and so forwarding became disabled. Restarting
shorewall of course fixes this by setting ip_forward back to 1.
All our other machines without ip_forward=0 in the configuration were
unaffected.
