  | Reachability os one thing, but you may have to wait for TCP timeouts.
  | RFC1122, section 4.2.3.5  TCP Connection Failures
  | Says that the initial SYN has to wait at least 3 minutes...

You're assuming that I am actually using a TCP SYN to detect
reachability.   That isn't the way it is done.   We want to make
things work well, not arbitrarily slow them down.
