+     dccp: handle invalid feature options length
+     
+     A length of zero (after subtracting two for the type and len fields) for
+     the DCCPO_{CHANGE,CONFIRM}_{L,R} options will cause an underflow due to
+     the subtraction.  The subsequent code may read past the end of the
+     options value buffer when parsing.  I'm unsure of what the consequences
+     of this might be, but it's probably not good.

+     dccp: Process incoming Change feature-negotiation options
+     
+     This adds/replaces code for processing incoming ChangeL/R options.
+     The main difference is that:
+      * mandatory FN options are now interpreted inside the function
+       (there are too many individual cases to do this externally);
+      * the function returns an appropriate Reset code or 0,
+        which is then used to fill in the data for the Reset packet.
+     
+     Old code, which is no longer used or referenced, has been removed.
