  Modified:    sys/netinet  tcp_timer.c
  Log:
  Fix a bug in the handling of the "persist" state which, under certain
  circumstances, caused perfectly good connections to be dropped.  This
  happened for connections over a LAN, where the retransmit timer
  calculation TCP_REXMTVAL(tp) returned 0.  If sending was blocked by flow
  control for long enough, the old code dropped the connection, even
  though timely replies were being received for all window probes.
