  Log:
  Forced commit to clarify that the last commit has enforced a
  more strict check against PPP packets, but does not involve
  a DoS vulnerability.
  
  The ``DoS Vulnerability'' in last commit message (rev. 1.5) is
  actually a false positive, because pppd(8) will fork for every
  connection and thus the issue closed in rev. 1.5 will not block
  subsequent connections, nor affect connections of other users.
