FWIW, this doesn't match the structure defined in the code.

So ophdr points to the lv memory in this case, but we're going to memcpy
this into iclog anyways.

Presumably the index check is intended to track processing the first lv
in the chain (with the two embedded headers). That seems Ok, but flakey
enough that I hope it doesn't survive the end of the series.

This is all hairy enough that I think it's helpful to at least separate
the two vectors from crossing inside an array boundary. For example,
something like the appended diff (untested).
