  Description
  
  Here's a patch that autosizes TCP buffers which increases network
performance over high-latency links.  Please review.  I'm leaving the
country for a couple months, so I may push this in a couple days if I
don't get any problem reports.
	Thanks,
Peter

	So far so good, it runs on a test box.  I am rebuilding the world &
    kernel on leaf now and will also run it on leaf.  That should be a
    better test.  It will be running in about an hour.
	netstat -tnaB  (upper case B) can be used to display socket
    buffer sizes, though I'm not entirely sure if the dynamic size
    changes will show up there.

    You should be able to see the changes.  ylem.theshell.com is running
that code, so if you need to do some test transfers over the actual
Internet, feel free.  It's about 100ms between those computers.
