Handling any ERR line in the pkt reader is okay, as
* we do not pkt-ize pack files and
* we do not have any other parts of the protocol where user data is in
the first four bytes, which could randomly match this pattern and
* the rest of the pkt-ized part of the protocol never sends
ERR lines.
Makes sense.
