crc32 compensation attack

[Micah Anderson <micah@riseup.net>]

Got what appears to be a "crc32 compensation attack in my logs today,
about 10 minutes worth of these types of messages.... should I be
worried? Should I laugh at this feable attempt to break in? Should I
gnaw my fingernails with my shotgun on my lap?
