[ECOS] Socket leak when accept() is aborted by TCP RST?

I'm seeing what appears to me to be a socket leak in the accept() operation provided by the new BSD network stack. One of my customers is doing something goofy (but legal) on his end which occasionally opens a socket (SYN,SYN/ACK,ACK) and then 140-150 us later sends a TCP RST. This results in

I don't know about the socket leak, per se, but I have had some dealings with the original BSD network stack with regards to the accept() call. From my memory, I remember there being two queues on which the socket might be placed (so_comp, so_incomp). Depending on the timing, the socket
