Re: [AAA-DOCTORS] [Technical Errata Reported] RFC5090 (5115)

  Looks good to me.  An attribute carrying a string 'true' can't be 3 octets in length.

  If we want to be pedantic, Digest-Stale should be:

	>= 3
	<= 7

  Because it can only contain the strings 'true' and 'false'.

  But we don't make that distinction for other attributes.  e.g. Digest-HA1 which is the output of a hash, and should be fixed length.

  I think it's fine to just use ">= 3" here.
