The packet is acked about 50 us after reception. Wicked!

But now: No ack! Funny.

Another packet, but this time it SACKs the just-recieved packet. It looks
as if the two packets inbetween somehow were not recognized as belonging
with this connection.

new packet, recognized ok, buffered, and acked!

Two more packets, and still more hints towards the other machine that
we're missing 9359225-9360653
> 13:57:40.568652 2001:968:1::2.8000 > tornado.wiggy.net.33035: . 9359225:9360433(1208) ack 1 win 5712 <nop,nop,timestamp 369670773 846113>
So, it retransmits the first. but we don't see it as beloging to
this connection or something, so it gets ignored.

again, again, again.
It looks as if somehow those two packets 9359225:9360433 and 9360433:9360653 get
mangled in a way as to invalidate the checksum. This would cause "silent drop"
of these packets before they were acked....
Can you check the stats counters, to see if they are indeed dropped?
