openssh-4.3p2: setsockopt() problem

[Chris Rapier]

This is likely due to the router and how it is handling header 
information. If it's rewriting portions of the header after the syn is 
sent I could see a connections hanging.

Getting a tcpdump of a connection on both sides would probably let you 
figure out exactly where the badness is taking place.
