I ran across this today after AboveNET upgraded some routers (I would
have appreciated a maintenance notice...)

I applied Claudio's patch and the sessions came back up and have been
stable for the last half hour. I'll check back in if there are any issues.

We have both IPv4 and IPv6 sessions with them, and the IPv6 sessions
were unaffected (for what it's worth.) This patch is running on two of
our routers.

Thank you,
