  Modified files:
    sys/netinet          tcp_input.c 
  Log:
  Remove the check for SYN in SYN_RECEIVED state; it breaks simultaneous
  connect.  This check was added as part of the defense against the "land"
  attack, to prevent attacks which guess the ISS from going into ESTABLISHED.
  The "src == dst" check will still prevent the single-homed case of the
  "land" attack, and guessing ISS's should be hard anyway.
