Yes, certainly it does.  If you send a SYN w/o any options it
won't use any.  If you establish a connection from FreeBSD you
may ignore any options in SYN and in your SYN-ACK not send any.
If you want FreeBSD not to send any options you can set the
socket option TCP_NOOPT before you do the connect.
