Oh hell, you're right, my apologies, thats exactly what happened, and I
misunderstood what you were saying.  I thought you were asking why I wasn't
including a parameter segment in the max_retrans abort (because there isn't
any).  I completly missed the fact that I inadvertently mangled the
sctp_violation_paramlen function. 

I'll fix that up and repost.

Thanks
Neil
