TCP stack not delaying/piggybacking ACKs?

- Subject: [ECOS] TCP stack not delaying/piggybacking ACKs?
I'm working with an application that exchanges a continuous
stream of data with a host. Each sends a TCP packet full of
data every 10ms or so.
The eCos stack is not delaying/piggybacking ACKs, so the eCos
app is sending roughly twice as many packets as it needs to.
[I'm running out of CPU throughput, and cutting the number of
TCP packets sent by 50% would really help]. The other end
(Linux host) never sends a lone ACK, since there's never more
than 10ms between data packets. This is an eCos CVS snapshot
from a while back (early 2001).
Have others noticed this behavior?
Has it been fixed?
