  There's another PR accusing the TCP security fix of
causing problems:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/64826

  I can't see how there could be any connection here,
but it's certainly suspicious that a 140-day stable
box became unstable after applying the security fix.
  Could someone on -net look at this?
