Linux tcp bug. Quite clear

...

They reply to our connection with a zero window - weird but legal

But this isn't what triggers the bug.

It's the "other" weird thing happening here, no MSS option,
the MSS ends up being ~0 of all things. 2.0 handled this
properly, and I was even the person who fixed it up there. :(

I'm working on a fix.
