As far as I can tell, Marc's patch and the "-b" flag *should* do the
same thing -- if you don't give the MSG_EOF flag to sendmsg(), it
will not set the FIN bit on the first data packet.

The only difference is that explicitly using connect(), it won't send
data with the first packet.  RFC793 section 3.9 explicitly allows data
with a SYN.
