Our TCP sockets DO fork now whenever a SYN packet arrives.  I'm not sure if I
made this clear or not in the original post, but what is in
http://code.nsnam.org/raj/ns-3-dev forks the socket and returns it to the
application via a call to NotifyNewConnectionCreated.  The original server
socket keeps on listening for incoming SYNs.  I'm not sure I understand what
the two issues are?
