Thanks a lot for the feature itself and updating the patch.

I've just tested tcp_stealth using my version of the patch and quickly 
patched versions of openvpn and openssh. Worked like a charm. ;)

In regard to TCP_MD5SIG, I have it enabled on some machines too (Likely
because of some projects where BGP was involved, but who knows). So one 
of the two boxes I've used for the test had it enabled, the other 
didn't. The #ifdefs from patch seem to have been ok. But as already 
said, it was more or less a quick & dirty solution (I'm sometimes lazy) 
and I assume your changes are better.

Btw., I would like if your patch would end up in the kernel. I've just
found and read the thread from december. I will post a reply to the thread.
