This bug was not completely fixed but there is need also this patch[1].

Further testing has revealed a couple more problems
with the packet reordering/buffering code.

1) Some clients (notably the PPTP client) start their sequence
   numbers at 1 instead of 0 as the RFC mandates. My previous
   fix caused problems with these clients.

2) Duplicate packets were causing corruption when they were
   placed on the queue but never used -or- when they were
   placed on the queue but already existed on the queue (i.e.
   they previously arrived out of order).

It was already applied to cvs[2].
