Since I've hardcoded FIN_WAIT to 10*HZ I didn't catch this.

This is on top of the following patch, which I have just sent Marcelo,
right?

I'll hit this on Monday. I've told Marcelo to hold on releasing 2.4.32
until I've verified the patch above from Julian. What is the easiest way
to reproduce your setup?
Is this critical for 2.4.32?
