A tcpdump is included in the original bug report.

As I understand it, the window is increased as data is moved from
kernel's TCP buffer to the application, thereby freeing up the buffer.
As more buffer-space becomes available, the window is opened further.

The example shows 3 additional window-advertisements, sent over
the space of almost 1 second.

I can generate more examples if you wish, as it happens fairly frequently
in the course of a day.
