Suricata has a similar issue, LRO/GRO breaks the stream5 reassembly.  It
looks like suri can only 'see' ~4k into a stream with offloading
enabled.  So yes, if you can pad your exploit with that much data suri
won't see it with those features enabled.

Note that this is also an issue with tcp stream depth and timeouts.
