Description

PF has the same problem as is described here for ipfw.
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2011-February/027838.html

This used to be replicable by doing this:
telnet -6 www.allstream.com 80
but as of 201509, this site no longer exhibits this behavior.

They set a frag header, offset = 0, M bit = 0, in all their SYN ACKs for some reason. That's valid per RFC 2460. pcap showing is attached.

PF logs it as follows:
