It simply doesn't apply to us, as Alexey explained, because we prevent
ACK divison already when we apply the ACK to the retransmit queue
purging loop.  If we didn't free any whole packets, we don't advance
the congestion window.

The other bit, dealing with delayed ACKs, we could handle another
way.

ABC is a very BSD specific algorithm, as Alexey also mentioned.
