I was just experimenting.

With my patch applied:

43.392834 l.1311 > l.2500: S 3232293621:3232293621(0) win 32280 <mss 16152,sackOK,timestamp 336478 0,nop,wscale 0> (DF) [tos 0x10]
43.392948 l.2500 > l.1311: S 3229276625:3229276625(0) ack 3232293622 win 32280 <mss 16152,sackOK,timestamp 336478 336478,nop,wscale 0> (DF)
43.393018 l.1311 > l.2500: . ack 1 win 32280 <nop,nop,timestamp 336478 336478> (DF) [tos 0x10]

(time passes, and I send some data)

51.370011 l.1311 > l.2500: P 1:3(2) ack 1 win 32280 <nop,nop,timestamp 373276 336478> (DF) [tos 0x10]
51.370102 l.2500 > l.1311: R 3229276626:3229276626(0) win 0 (DF) [tos 0x10]

Ok, this surely is incorrect. However, sending spurious SYNACK packets
doesn't seem like the way to solve this problem. I know it complicates the
kernel, but if we do connection preprocessing, shouldn't we also do teardown
in case of timeout?

Thanks for the explanation.
