[tproxy] Stunnel 4 on linux 2.6.22

This strace shows my (albeit hacked up) work attempting to get stunnel
to play with tproxy support.

strace obviously doesn't know how to interpret the IP_FREEBIND passed
to setsockopt, but other than that, it's not throwing an error there.
Stunnel uses the EINPROGRESS error as a signal to attempt the next ip
in the list (if it has one) so it just ends up resetting a perfectly
good connection every time.

We're using tproxy 4.0.2-2.6.22

Do we _have_ to patch iptables and set up the tproxy stuff there in
order to do the tproxy freebind stuff?

Thanks...
