Grmpf...  Typing :wq too fast.  The sysctl name is net.inet.icmp.quotelen.

Next I'm going to make this more intelligent by always quoting the entire
TCP header including TCP options if the original packet was TCP.  This
aids in-the-wild debugging a lot and allows the receiver to do more
elaborate checks on the validity of the response.
