No it will be dropped unless you had a packet of 500 bytes

And yes, i forgot fragmentation schemes, such as FRF.12 and PPP
Multilink :)

But they are not a "queueing" stuff, fragmentation and queueing/dequeueing
are performed independenlty.

For instance,. with FRTS and FRF.12 you have dual-FIFO software queue.
