I was assuming this discussion did not need compilation-level precision. 

I should have said “never seen *this* error” (of erroneously using the IP length to infer the UDP data length rather than using the UDP length field). 

The point remains. Not seeing a bug does not mean the bug does not exist or that the code implements the spec.
