This looks to me like a fairly clear violation of the above spec from
793.

Nevertheless, NetBSD accepts this packet as correct if no ipf rules are involved.

I wonder if there is any interest from the community to get the ipf's and NetBSD's notion of "tcp session" to get to sync. - should i file a PR?

Btw. we solved it at work by leaving the "broken" server-hosting provider.
