It seems there is a problem if both PMTUDiscovery and Compression is used.
Another problem is that both sides must have PMTUDiscovery = no, otherwise it
will still be enabled anyway. Michael Tokarev has also seen this problem. I'll
have a better look at the code and I'll try to reproduce it myself, and see if
I can fix it.

In the mean time, the workaround is to explicitly disable PMTUDiscovery and
Compression.
