Log:
UDP and SCTP aren't byte-stream protocols, so they don't offer TCP-style
reassembly. UDP has no notion of reassembly - that's done at the IP
layer - and SCTP has its own notions of reassembly which it currently
doesn't provide. As such, TCP-style reassembly isn't possible for
JXTA-over-UDP or JXTA-over-SCTP.
As for TCP, a heuristic dissector for a TCP-based protocol can't request
more data if it's rejecting a packet; make it not do so. That should
fix the recent buildbot crash, although there are still some reassembly
problems with that capture (c05-http-reply-r1.pcap.gz in the menagerie
and on the SampleCaptures page of the Wiki) that aren't fixed yet.
