  Log:
  IPv6 packets can contain headers (like options) before the TCP/UDP/ICMP6
  header. pf finds the first TCP/UDP/ICMP6 header to filter by traversing
  the header chain. In the case where headers are skipped, the protocol
  checksum verification used the wrong length (included the skipped headers),
  leading to incorrectly mismatching checksums. Such IPv6 packets with
  headers were silently dropped.
