           Summary: IP should not compute the header checksum if within an

           Version: SVN

An ICMP "destination unreachable" packet.

Build Information:
SVN 33779
--
If an IP packet appears in an error packet, such as with an ICMP "destination
unreachable" for instance, it should not attempt to calculate the header
checksum as it will always be incorrect due to the full IP payload not being
present.
