I'm not sure if you've been following the list and/or git master
commits, but we have somehing in master for a while now...

commit fc91d4b0071178e298052078431fb86f03be84fc (master)

... and as far as we can see, this "just works" (and OpenVPN 3 on iOS
and Android also uses larger packets for the control channel, so we're
just following suit here).

So, if you run git master, you already have it :-) - and if you run 2.3.x,
you can just cherry-pick the patch, it should apply easily.

(It will eventually hit 2.3.9 or 2.3.10, but I want to wait for a bit
more feedback from the "early testers")
