Oh, bleh, we do require that the order match, don't we?  There's not
really a protocol reason to do so, since we tag all the fields; clients
should be able to deal with the extended fields coming in any order.  But
RFC 3977 doesn't say that.

Yeah, I'm not sure if anyone does that either.

    Please send questions to the list rather than mailing me directly.
     <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/questions.html> explains why.
