Seems to work as expected with 12.2(15)T12 Tim...

RTR1 ------ RTR2 -------RTR3
172.16.200.10 is the interface on RTR1
172.16.123.3 is the serial int on rtr3

 class-map match-all fr-de
  match access-group 101
!
!
 policy-map frame-de
  class fr-de
   set fr-de

Extended IP access list 101
    10 permit ip host 172.16.200.10 host 172.16.123.3 (14 matches)
R2#

R2#sh policy-map interface ser2/0

 Serial2/0

  Service-policy output: frame-de

    Class-map: fr-de (match-all)
      14 packets, 1456 bytes
      5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
      Match: access-group 101

      87 packets, 4430 bytes
      5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
      Match: any

R3#sh fram pvc 302

PVC Statistics for interface Serial2/0 (Frame Relay DTE)

DLCI = 302, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = ACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial2/0
