For example, if we have a connection between TCP "A" and TCP "B" and "A" sends segments "1" and "2", but we don't see the first and then the next acknowledgement from "B" is for everything up to, and including, "2", the gap would be reported to include both segments instead of just the first and then delivering the second. Put generally: any segments that weren't yet delivered because they're waiting for an earlier gap to be filled would be dropped when an ACK comes in that includes the gap as well as those pending segments. (If a distinct ACK was seen for just the gap, that situation would have worked). Addresses BIT-1246.
