  From now on, people should have now problems when using our T/TCP
  aware finger to query hosts with broken TCP implementations provided
  that net.inet.tcp.rfc1644 is off.  I'd like to ask people, however,
  not to switch it off by default.  If you encounter problems, please
  send me a note so that I can collect information about
  non-conformant TCP implementations and eventually find a way to make
  vendors fix their TCPs.

Which, by the way, the next versions of all KA9Q nos programs should have
this fixed (thanks to Phil Karn).  If anyone needs copies of the proper
patch to NOS, let me know.
