Agreed, we can't "fix" it in the guests, but it's a wart. That's why I haven't bothered fixing it, but if someone else wants to I'll cheer all the way. lguest did it because I knew I could fix lguest any time; it was a bad mistake and I will now fix lguest :) > We really need to introduce a feature bit if we want to change this. I don't think it's worth it. But the spec does say that the implementation should not rely on the framing (I think there's a note that current implementations are buggy tho, so you should frame it separately anyway). That way future devices can get it right, at least.
