   My take on this is: you cannot really change the MTU on an interface   
   -- you can only tell the interface the actual MTU on the link.   
   If you lie to it, anything can happen.  Or, rather, I assume anything   
   can happen.   
      
   So I wouldn't set the MTU to X unless I could be sure all other hosts   
   were set to X too, and that X is in fact supported by the medium.   
      
   Are you doing this out of curiosity, or are you trying to solve a   
   problem?
