Connections locking up with today's -CURRENT

Hi

Anyone noticed that today's current has connections jamming like below:

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0  33028  196.7.162.25.22        196.7.147.230.3569     ESTABLISHED

Or

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0    846  41.204.193.40.783      196.7.147.20.4131      LAST_ACK
tcp4       0   2707  41.204.193.40.783      196.7.147.136.3009     LAST_ACK
tcp4       0    650  41.204.193.40.783      196.7.147.18.2159      LAST_ACK
tcp4       0    587  41.204.193.40.783      196.7.147.20.3710      LAST_ACK
tcp4       0    587  41.204.193.40.783      196.7.147.18.2155      LAST_ACK

It's odd because with the top one, I can still log out and the shell
disappears, except for the sshd process, which if I kill it terminates
the connection.

In the second case, those LAST_ACK connections have been around for
about 2 hours.

Heavy (well, not so heavy) traffic seems to trigger this on long
standing connections.  For instance, 'tail -f /var/log/spamd.log'
on a busy spamassassin process will do it.
