It works for me. However, Keith Welter has a couple of issues with it:

The part about errors in IKE_AUTH exchanges (now 2.21.2) has several  
times the phrase "usually with no other payloads" or "and is usually  
the only payload in that response". To me this just means that we're  
not forbidding putting other payloads in the message, but we don't see  
why one would need it. Keith finds it unduly mysterious, and would  
like to mention the possibility of adding a DELETE payload when the  
error is sent in a separate INFORMATIONAL. I don't like the idea of  
having an optional payload with no added semantics, but I do think  
that any implementation should be able to handle this extra payload.

Also, the phrase "or the INFORMATIONAL exchange immediately following  
it" (same section) should be clarified to state that it's an  
INFORMATIONAL exchange initiated by the original initiator to send an  
error message about the IKE_AUTH exchange.

Other than that, yes, I think you can copy & paste it into the bis.
