I've just rechecked with a fresh 2.4.20 + patch-2.4.21-rc1 + cset-1.1141
from kernel.org, and a fresh p-o-m-20030429 from netfilter.org, and I can
only reproduce the problem if I don't enable 24_conntrack-nosysctl (as you
said). Once it's applied, tcp-window-tracking applies correctly. I don't
really know why I wasn't including it, because I had marked it as one to
avoid because of a conflict it would have caused in an earlier version, or
against a broken kernel... Strange...

Yes, I know that but it's still listed here because I maintain a list of
patches to avoid, which makes frequent rebuilds far easier.

I know, but it's on my avoid-list too, because if I apply it by mistake,
I only see the conflict on the last one... tcp-window-tracking, so I
prefer drop it from the start.

Well, it seems that my list initiated to make my life easier fooled me
instead, this time !

Thanks for your help, Harald and Martin, and sorry for the noise.
