Good point.  The reason I'm reluctant is that in the normal run of
things (where the window update doesn't get lost) not splitting the
packet saves the sender a fair bit of work without really causing
performance problems.  So I'm happy to go to the effort of splitting the
packet if we think there's been a problem (i.e. we're sending a probe)
but would rather avoid it if everything is OK.
