When parsing the OPTION_CLIENT_FQDN the DHCPv6 dissector makes this mistake:

    case OPTION_CLIENT_FQDN:
....
            dhcpv6_domain(subtree, tvb, off-1, optlen-1);

which should be:

            dhcpv6_domain(subtree, tvb, off+1, optlen-1);

rolling forward skipping the flags, i.s.o. rolling back to the option length
itself, always triggering "Malformed DNS name record (MS Vista client?)".
