Netfilter is working as designed here.  We can't change it to make it work
with
the braindead Windows ping implementation without causing potential for
conntrack DoS.  Adding tracking of the sequence number to the conntrack would
cause a massive increase in conntracks during ping floods, for instance. 
Closing.
