Sorry, this was a brain fart on my side. Your code is correct as far
as I can see.
My worries regarding floods apply to the old code too (it was not
a specific criticism of your change), but I understand that it is currently
the wrong time to think about such things.
Now it would be still interesting to track the Alpha pmtudisc problem down.
Can anyone else with an Alpha reproduce it? Alexey, what were the results
on your box?
