The number used is still 10. The error count doesn't get reduced as the
number of errors is only meant to go up. And there are reasons for the
existence of the TIME_WAIT state, so it's not a good thing to rely on being
able to reuse PCBs which are in it (unless you really can't avoid it of
course - as long as you're aware of it).
