I admit that I had assumed, from the commit message, that that was the way
it would be done, because anything else would be silly :-).  If all of
these conditions hold (and ICMP messages are correctly ignored if they are
truncated too early to include the info (rather than wild-carding), and IP
+ TCP options are correctly handled without alignment problems), then I
see no reason not to turn this on by default.
