I need a tcpdump of a session to judge this. There are two probable causes since 2.0 is ok
1. The spiderports don't handle SACK and are confused by the offers 2. The spiderports don't handle the way Linux deals with small window offers and retransmits. PC/TCP has a horrible bug there and the results sound similar.
