Andreas, I can spend the whole afternoon discussing with you one word at
a time in a kind of Socratic question and answer exchange.

You mean the padding can be *in the middle*? I didn't consider that,
seems quite crazy to me. If you are sure, please say it, let's skip
those 2 or 6 bytes, and be done with it. I have the patch otherwise ready.

Paolo.
