Comment # 2 on bug 9727 from 
I *suspect* somebody is failing to run out of data, so we're getting IP atop
DVB atop MPEG-2 transport stream atop UDP atop IP atop DVB atop....

Is this a problem with MPEG-2 transport stream reassembly, so that headers at
some layer aren't getting stripped off?  Or, when reassembling data, are we
recursing over packets rather than iterating?  Yes, to iterate is human, and to
recurse is divine, but to recurse without tail-recursion eats stack memory.
