No, this is a vanilla 7.0-RELEASE installation with only lpd and
ntpd configured. Neither of pf, ipf or ipfw is used.

OK, will do. However, the described problem only happens when
the box is resending SYN-ACK after SYN was received and no answer
(ACK) was received after the first SYN-ACK. All other
connection requests from the same host to the same port (lpd)
work without problems. So currently this affects about 0.1 to 0.3
percent of all 3000 - 6000 print requests.
