I hope nobody did that. I really do. The 2.0 kernels refuse data
with the SYN frame because otherwise some jerk will send you
fragmented packets of a SYN + 63.5K of data and queue as many as
possible on each service you have running

Whoops bang there goes another one etc

We drop data in a SYN frame, relax pinhead.
