...No need, I mostly digged this up already because I was bit unsure 
how it should be, your conversions didn't invert anything significant,
at least before 2.4.0 :-).  ...Unless you first fixed it and then
broke it again (in your private working tree)... :-/

...If I understood the very old history correctly, this bug was introduced 
in 2.4.0-test12 which inverted !tail incorrectly to nonagle==1.

You can check include/net/tcp.h diffs from this commit:
http://www.linux-mips.org/git?p=linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=c9c06167e7933d93a6e396174c68abf242294abb

...Though it's very large one. So I included only the relevant portion 
here below.
