Gcrypt 1.4.5, with MIT Kerberos, without GeoIP, without PortAudio, without
AirPcap.

Running on Linux 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.i686, with libpcap version 1.1.1, with libz

Built using gcc 4.5.1 20100924 (Red Hat 4.5.1-4).

In the standard 802.3at-2009 the PoE+ TLVs are 12 bytes long, but in the
earlier version 802.3bc-2009, they are 7 bytes long (the power
type/source/priority, and the requested and allocated fields are lacking). Not
respecting the length of the TLV leads to wireshark displaying garbage data and
could lead to reading outside of buffer.
