Looking at it at the moment. At first glance the MTU detected by the new
scheme always worked for me, both with IPv4 and IPv6 transport both
within a 1500 byte network and behind a MTU 1492 ADSL line.

So, even if openconnect errorneously always sends X-CSTP-Base-MTU 1500,
the connection works way better than before. Probably because it allows
the ASA to calculate it on its own.

We can give you a test account on our ASA if you'd like to test it, too.
