I missed that question. It's probably not neccessary, we will get a
small race when zapping conntracks, but according to this comment in
unreplied() we already have one anyway.

/* There's a small race here where we may free a just-assured
    connection.  Too bad: we're in trouble anyway. */

Not sure if it's still correct, though.

Regards
Patrick
