+	 * FIXME: The code below is broken and the variables have been removed

+	 * and with arsent there are several problems:
+	 *  (i) it doesn't just count the number of Acks, but all sent packets;
+	 *  (ii) it is expressed in # of packets, not # of windows, so the
+	 *  comparison below uses the wrong formula: Appendix A of RFC 4341
+	 *  comes up with the number K = cwnd / (R^2 - R) of consecutive windows
+	 *  of data with no lost or marked Ack packets. If arsent were the # of
+	 *  consecutive Acks received without loss, then Ack Ratio needs to be
+	 *  decreased by 1 when
+	 *	      arsent >=  K * cwnd / R  =  cwnd^2 / (R^3 - R^2)
+	 *  where cwnd / R is the number of Acks received per window of data
+	 *  (cf. RFC 4341, App. A). The problems are that
+	 *  - arsent counts other packets as well;
+	 *  - the comparison uses a formula different from RFC 4341;
+	 *  - computing a cubic/quadratic equation each time is too complicated.
+	 *  Hence a different algorithm is needed.
