NAT sequence number adjustment is broken since 2.6.11. I believe
the patch was submitted in after 2.6.12-rc3 had been released.

But it's an FTP/IRC/etc data channel related bug. It has nothing to do
with plain HTTP. Do you mean HTTP transfer is also broken or it's just an
FTP transfer initiated by a web client?
