Thank you. I have tested this in 4.5.2 and it works (atleast setkey
-D, gives the right values for replay_window <= 32).
I suppose there is no way with popular tools to cross-verify that
replay_window is being set fine for values greater than 32 (It is not
a use case for me, so doesn't matter).

Thanks,
Guru
