This log is an ICMP error. And, as such, it contains a citation from the
IP packet that have raised it.

Type 11, code 0 is TTL exceeded in transit.

This is original packet citation so your kernel can associate the error
to the right sent IP packet.

The source is 80.5.144.39 (normal) and the destination 200.179.192.14
(dns1.rjo.virtua.com.br). As you can see, packet was received with
TTL=1. That's why the error was raised. Then we know the payload was TCP
but the citation was truncated at 8 bytes although we need 20 to analyse
TCP header (RFC says at least IP header + 8 bytes). By the way, it could
have been cool if theses 8 bytes were shown ;)
