Lucius,

I usually agree with you, but not on this one. When I use Netsonic, one of
whose functions is to adjust MTU, it preserves the original value in a
setting called origmaxmtu. I think that it would not be wise to delete
maxmtu, since it is part of a larger set of values. It would be safer to
just set it back to 576 until you can get one of the many dynamic mtu
setters that will handle it. Actually, I believe that a value of 1500 will
work in most circumstances.
