+     and get fix the header length calculation.

+  *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
+     overflow checks added in 0.9.6e.  This prevents DoS (the
+     assertions could call abort()).

+     negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
+     supplied buffer.
+     [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
 
   *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
      for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
