Someone cc me the fix when its finished then. I've added this to
the 2.0.34 must fix before release list.

I think it's a misnomer the more I think about it, and I even tested
2.1.x connections using TCP options through a 2.0.x IP MASQ machine
tonight, it looked pretty much kosher.

It's smelling more like a 2.1.x bug at this point.
