It got commited to 4.x and 5.x in August 2002; the sysctls were renamed
to net.inet.tcp.inflight_debug, inflight_enable, and inflight_min. 
They're documented in the tcp(4) manpage.  Note that it's got a
specific purpose; you don't want to turn this on by default as it will
lower the throughput of individual TCP streams to prevent backlogs and
packet loss.
