false checksum failure reports

Any thoughts as to how to deal with false checksum failure reports for outbound traffic being sniffed on a system with ChecKsum Offload (CKO)? It seems that linux has a flag they can set when capturing the packet that would tell us, not sure what other platforms might have - there it might be necessary to "guess" based on the source IP matching one of the system's local IPs.
