Huh?  The copy of nestea2 that I've got (from a bugtraq message) won't even
run under 3.0.  The last sendto() fails with errno == EINVAL.  If I bypass
the sanity check in rip_output() that looks for the bogus length in the IP
header, then the program runs but I don't see any crashes.  All that happens
is that the equivalent sanity check in ip_input() detects the problem and
increments ipstat.ips_tooshort.  I can see this in netstat -s

ip:
        6814 total packets received
        0 bad header checksums
--->    2000 with size smaller than minimum
--->    2000 with data size < data length
