Error message received in Heartbeat log

[Soffen, Matthew]

Hmmm.  I just ran tcpdump on my hearbeat channel.  This is the packet that
apparently is giving me this message in my testing.  Alan, is it possible
that it is the starting message wacking things out ?

Best bet is probably to use tcpdump and capture the ping packet in 
both directions, then post those.

Use something like `tcpdump tcpdump icmp -X -x -s 1024 > filename`

This will allow someone to see just how the ping packet is being 
mangled, and demonstrate that this is happening, assuming that's 
what's going on.
