(In reply to Hiren Panchasara from comment #5)
My test system died years ago but I believe that it still is a problem.

It should be trivial to check.

create a IPv6 TCP socket.
set IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU=1 using setsockopt
connect to a data sink
write 1400 bytes to the socket in a single operation

Examine the packets sent with tcpdump.  There should be no fragmented
packets being sent as TCP is supposed to take into account MTU
information.
