fragrouter + tcpreplay would do the trick.  I don't think fragroute
(no r) will work properly with tcpreplay on the same box, but you
might give it a try.

You can get fragrouter (unsupported afaik) here:
http://packetstorm.widexs.nl/UNIX/IDS/nidsbench/nidsbench.html

Newer (and supported) versions of tcpreplay from here:
http://tcpreplay.sourceforge.net/

Fragroute (supported):
http://www.monkey.org/~dugsong/fragroute/

Of course none of these tools really make it easy to determine what
packet(s) actually cause the problem, but you can step through the
pcap file manually using tcpreplay.

Am trying to determine a method to transmit PCAP files with

fragmentation.

I have sets of captures now for various protocols (IM, EMAIL, HTTP, etc)
and wish to transmit them in a fragmented format to test the ability of
an
analysis tool to properly defragment and rebuild the sessions.
Optimally,
I'd like to be able to set a fragmentation percentage and replay a set
of
pcap files to gauge the failure point.  Out-of-order packet generation
in the same tool would just be a big plus!

Any thoughts?  Your input will be greatly appreciated.

Whether possible solutions are open source, commercial, or a mix-  I'd
love
to hear about it.  Thanks much
