Given that we're in the process of implementing the v2 interface, I
don't think it'd be wise to perturb v1 interface at this point.  We're
gonna have to carry around v1 code for quite some time anyway and I
don't think carrying the tcp code would make whole lot of difference
given that the code is likely to stay static from now on.

Thanks.
