and similar niceties both replaces what I added my name to OpenSSH
to work on (integrate the very nice but by now very outdated openssh+gssapi
patches), and works with current OpenSSH versions.
with this in mind, remove `some not-so-wise guy's' name from OpenSSH and
add elric's. :-)
The value of 50 dates back to 4.3BSD and 10Mbit interfaces.
Gigabit interfaces are 100x faster, and by observation, when heavy
interrupt mitigation is enabled, gigabit interfaces can enqueue 40 packets
or more in a single hardware interrupt. So IFQ_MAXLEN of 256 is adequate
for at least four gigabit interfaces.
Increasing IFQ_MAXLEN discussed and approved, in priniciple, circa Apr 2004.
The value is sysctl'able, so the default is no longer so critical,
but (imho) best to tune for high-performane systems by default.
NAT-T changes. Matches changes to reference non-nonexistent structs in
sys/netkey.
I have no clue if this is correct, but it matches the style in
sys/netkey, and (unlike the previous two revisions) it actually compiles...

Fixes in that patch for pre-existing TCP pcb initializations were already
committed to NetBSD-current, so are not included in this commit.
The SACK patch has been observed to correctly negotiate and respond,
to SACKs in wide-area traffic.
There are two indepenently-observed, as-yet-unresolved anomalies:
First, seeing unexplained delays between in fast retransmission
(potentially explainable by an 0.2sec RTT between adjacent
ethernet/wifi NICs); and second, peculiar and unepxlained TCP
retransmits observed over an ath0 card.
After discussion with several interested developers, I'm committing
this now, as-is, for more eyes to use and look over. Current hypothesis
is that the anomalies above may in fact be due to link/level (hardware,
driver, HAL, firmware) abberations in the test setup, affecting both
Kentaro's wired-Ethernet NIC and in my two (different) WiFi NICs.
methods use va_list in a manner that is directly related to the public API.
This makes it much easier to write dynamic nsswitch backends for the
getusershell(3) (et al) functions.
Per my proposal on tech-userlevel in September 2004.
