I can't imagine that it would be. Since I am assuming inside interface mtu
is equal to the outside int mtu, and equal to the mtu on the interface of
the server itself, there should not be an icmp "packet too big" issued by
you anyway. In the case of an outbound session, I think the pix asa would
be intelligent enough to handle it. On an inbound session if there was a
smaller mtu on the inside, I think you would still issue the correct icmp
packet but it would come from the outside interface. This is typical
anyway. I know that breaking of pmtud can wreak havoc (I have war stories,
and learned the hard way), but I don't think you will have any issues in
this case.
