Our device is a server which suddenly stopped responding. LWIP on the device was configured for 10 PCBs for incoming connections. We found that all 10 PCBs were active in "LAST_ACK" state, so no more incoming connections could be accepted.

Fixed, thanks for the hint.
Independently of this bug, I've changed the deallocation scheme prefer killing LAST_ACK, but explicitly killing LAST_ACK (and CLOSING) independent of the prio (no data is lost) seems like a better idea.
