Title:
  Compatibility issue with uggly Windows RFC1323 implementation

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Maverick:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  First, sorry for my bad english.

  The issue is that Linux-based OS sometimes can't make an tcp
  connection to some Windows servers with switched on buggy
  implementation of rfc1323, that described on this forum: http://www
  .network-builders.com/windows-tcp-timestamp-not-compliant-
  rfc-1323-a-t80898.html.

  Because some Windows hosts implementation of rfc1323 bases on randomly
  generated TSval and sent first value of TSval as 0, the difference of
  recent and new TSval sometimes has been affected by a sign magic issue
  and the PAWS mechanism has been triggered. Anyway, the rfc1323 has
  discribes the condition of PAWS as "0 < (t - s) < 2**31", that has
  been right implementation in current linux kernel, but incompatible
  with Windows bug.

  For example, the one of affected to this issue Windows host is behind
  relay.n-l-e.ru:80. Note that problems arise only when the remote side
  sets the TC val > 2147483647, ie when there is a sign.

  I think that my small patch makes the kernel more compatible with this
  windows bug.
