Oops.  You're right.  I covered the "-f" and "-f -f" cases, but forgot
to adjust the separate -ff flag.  Fixed for 3.81.

I have a slight preference for having one -f do the smallest fragment
size (8) with the mtu getting bigger for each additional -f (so 16 for
-ff).  So this is what I'll do for Nmap 3.81 unless there is a good
reason for doing the opposite?
