Maybe a silly question:  Couldn't Linux turn off ECN in retransmitted
SYN packets, so it would still work with sites that drop ECN packets
on the floor?

The only related thread I could find in list archives implied that
Linux is "all or none" because of someone's conviction that making
Linux fail to interoperate with such sites would somehow force them
to change.  I hope it's not that...
