Ben, 

Although I am not a core developer of ethereal, I am highly interested
in looking at your test results. Could you open an account for me?
Acutally, I am amazed that ethereal has such a low defect/KLOC ratio.
It may be because ethereal is designed to work with faulty inputs, but
there must be other reasons as well. Maybe our code is just to verbose
:-)

Best regards
Thomas
