Subjectpre-2.1.90-3 IP problems
  On pre-2.1.90-2 I tried to run RealAudio 3.0 to play an audio stream,
but my system froze completely and I had to use the reset button.  Then I
tried a second time and it rebooted itself.  I tried it hours later and my
system didn't die that time.  RealAudio wasn't connecting so I checked the
network activity and found that my system was sending out a flood of the
same TCP ack packet to the server--about 2 packets every hundredth of a
second!  RealAudio used readv and writev several times before it looped
waiting for a response, doing selects and reads with an EAGAIN response. 
Then I upgraded from pre-2.1.90-2 to pre-2.1.90-3.  The problem is the
same.  There was another strange event when my modem's error correction
caused some lag while I was pinging my gateway and returned with several
duplicate replies, some about 5 packets off.  I do that all the time and
that has never happened before.  I'm using pre-2.1.90-3 with no patches
other than a compile fix.
