Can you look at the following two items just for sanity's sake:
1. Run tcpdump on the other side at the same time, make sure packets
which aren't getting acked are really dropped.
2. Check /proc/net/snmp for Tcp InErrs to see if non-acked packets are
ignored due to bad checksum.
The long series of S -> C retransmits at the end make me suspect #2. If
not, probably a bona-fide bug. The other retransmits could be caused by
normal drops in the network and can be ignored if #1 shows that is the
case.
