COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on my conversation with DEE, I understand that the HMAC is always
computed over a value which is disjoint with the HKDF-Label. This is not really
cryptographically ideal -- as I stated in my review, you should be HKDFing two
keys off the same key -- but it does imply that the trivial attack doesn't
work, so I'm removing my DISCUSS. As we discussed, please add some explanation
of why this is a non-issue to the document.
