This "Limited Transmit" option, is that configurable somewhere and does tha=

work-around the bug (a quick grep tcp on sysctl -a doesn't yield something=
=20
recognizable)?

Seen this this morning while doing a `cvs -d/home/ncvs update src', logged =
in=20
via ssh in a GENERIC kernel of 2004-01-10. This was via a chello Netherland=
s=20
cable connection - an ISP famous for it's high bandwidth and equally high=20
packet loss, so it fits the profile.

I'll try Andre's patch regardless, but if it doesn't work, it would be nice=
 if=20
there's an alternative (maybe mention that in UPDATING as well).
