Decode of a BGP session results in nearly all update packets flagged as
malformed. Also NLRI (e.g. 91.220.91.0/24, for the first update) is missing
from the decode in most cases.

tcpdump 4.3.0 on my laptop is able to decode the trace with no apparent errors:
tcpdump version 4.3.0 -- Apple version 59
libpcap version 1.5.3 - Apple version 47

For the first packet, tcpdump shows:
