Makes sense.

I wonder if we should rename packet_buf_write to something like
packet_buf_writef.  Right now there's a kind of confusing collection of
functions without much symmetry.

Alternatively, the _buf_ ones could become strbuf_* functions:

	strbuf_add_packet(&buf, data, len);
	strbuf_addf_packet(&buf, fmt, ...);

That would make it clearer that these append to buf.

I'm just thinking out loud.  For this series, the API you have here
looks fine, even if it is a bit inconsistent.  (In other words, even
if you agree with me, this would probably be best addressed as a patch
on top.)

Could the error message describe the long line (e.g.

		...impossibly long line %.*s...", 256, data);

)?

Could do, more simply:

	packet_trace(data, len, 1);

Thanks,
