Comment # 2 on bug 10006 from 
As far as I understand, the option in the pcap file has data length of 15
bytes.
One byte is read for the Option Code and 14 bytes are read for the Link-layer
address.
However, because one byte between the option code and the address is skipped, a
total of 16 bytes are read for the option data, which causes the next option to
be read incorrectly.

You can also that in Wireshark, if you click on the "Mobility Header Link-Layer
Address" 17 bytes are being highlighted ending with a byte of value 0xE3.
However, when clicking on the "Mobility Header Link-Layer Address option", 18
bytes are being highlighted ending with a byte of value 0x06 (which basically
means we read too many bytes for this option).
