revision 1.291
date: 2006/02/28 23:05:59;  author: andre;  state: Exp;  lines: +20 -19
Rework TCP window scaling (RFC1323) to properly scale the send window
right from the beginning and partly clean up the differences in handling
between SYN_SENT and SYN_RCVD (syncache).

Further changes to this code to come.  This is a first incremental step
to a general overhaul and streamlining of the TCP code.
