To clarify and expand on this a but, there were some emails on the list saying that the changes in section 3.4 are good, but that all the RBridges have to use the same calculation or the RPF check will drop packets that shouldn't be dropped. Assuming that is correct, then it would make sense to specify in section 3.4 that this change causes an incompatibility with 6325 (and explain the issue a bit) but that it makes sense to fix this (there were reasons posted on the list). I think it would also be good to have an additional section titled "Incompatible changes" which just contains a sentence which refers to section 3.4.
