Does this fix a regression? I thought 3.4 was in regressions-only
mode.

Does it make sense to remove the offset from `maxlen' but keep it for
`dbytes'? I don't get that. Plus, don't we want to keep `offset' in
the computation anyway?
Also, it seems to me that we're missing some checking in
DatagramPacket. At least, the class javadoc claims:
* Note that for all method below where the buffer length passed by the
* caller cannot exceed the actually length of the byte array passed as
* the buffer, if this condition is not true, then the method silently
* reduces the length value to maximum allowable value.
... but I don't see code to actually implement this. setLength tries
to throw an exception in this situation (though it may be vulnerable
to wrapping). So there's at least a little inconsistency.
