Looks fine to me. ECN would be a useful feature to have. AFAIK nothing 
else uses these flags.

Although I do remember it being possible to fingerprint Solaris boxes 
based on their response to the ECN Echo, this was around 6 years ago.

I second Andre's request for a full unified diff if you want it to go in 
ASAP.
