The active side looks fine.  The passive side can enter timewait without moving 
through RTS if it gets an RTU timeout.  I'm not sure how much going into 
timewait really helps in this case though.

If we completely ignore timewait, what conditions are required to have a problem 
occur?  And, can we meet those conditions if we connect over the IB CM, given 
the CMs three-way handshake?
