After some first tests, remote connections are still working, but not
local ones from the director. The TCP handshake works and the
connection is established, but all following packets arriving at the
real server have an incorrect TCP checksum.
Btw., this happens both with and without this last series of patches,
so I can't get the local client feature working at all. Looking at it
further...
