> The draft at 
> http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-ipv6-atomic-fragments-00 should be 
> revisited if it gets published.  According to section 3, atomic fragment 
> headers can just be ignored and "reassembly" skipped.  That also should 
> improve the case where a packet has multiple atomic fragment headers (see 
> attached pcap), because currently Bro doesn't recursively reassemble the 
> inner atomic fragments, it just stops processing the packet and gives the 
> "unknown_protocol_44" weird to indicate there was packet with multiple 
> fragment headers.
