TCP RST+data!

Hi

I have a device (sip/iax phone) that has a web interface and a
poorly documented CLI.  The only thing is it sends a RST with its
last data packet.  "Stevens" seems to indicate an RST should discard
buffered data and I suspect that's what's happening when I try to
browse to it.

However, Windows and MacOs both pull up the web page.  Is this a
bug in our TCP implimentation or in theirs?

Here's a tcpdump of seamonkey trying to retrieve the document index:
