OK, that makes sense too! Although my personality would like to see
everything analysed with 100% certaintly, the real world is not 
always perfect, and tracesfiles might not always be either...

Let's stick to the currently committed heuristic solution, the 
chances of a false malformed packet are deminished by a large factor.
