Did you know you can do trace route with IPX on Cisco routers? It's not just an IP thing.
I suggest you try this. Maybe you caused some weird routing somehow. Your network sounds sort of complicated and non-hierarchical. Maybe the branch offices used to communicate directly and how they go through the core and out into the outer reaches and back again. Trace route would let you determine if this is happening. Good luck. Let us know what you discover. This is an interesting problem.
