+commit 32027e199368dad9508965aae8cd8de5b6ab5231
+Author: Guy Harris <guy@alum.mit.edu>
+Date: Sat Apr 18 14:04:59 2020 -0700
+
+ PPP: When un-escaping, don't allocate a too-large buffer.
+
+ The buffer should be big enough to hold the captured data, but it
+ doesn't need to be big enough to hold the entire on-the-network packet,
+ if we haven't captured all of it.
+
