list,


attached is a replacement for the existing tcp analysis code.
anyone using it, please test this out and report issues to me.


the tcp analysis code has been rewritten from scratch since the old
version was just getting unmaintainable and also was originally
written before the full problem space was understood.


i have tested most of it and it seems to be "better" this far but
since this is very delicate code   i would really appreciate anyone
using it testing it.


in particular, testing it with traces where the old code failed would
be extra value.able.



sorry for the previous version of the broken code.
it was the second attempt that got checked in and not the third
functioning version.   this is the third  and hopefully
good/maintainable version.

(my theory:
version 1:   understand problem space.   delete completely afterwards.
version 2: verify that problem space is understood by reimplementing
from scratch.   delete completely afterwards.
version 3: reimplement good version from scratch based on
understanding gained from 1, and 2,
)
