[syslinux] Tftp-hpa-0.48 ACKs error messages from tftp server

[Kjeld Mortensen]

I have observed that the tftp-hpa-0.48 tftp client sends an ACK in
case it receives an error message from a tftp server. Inspecting the
source code confirms this behaviour.

According to the tftp RFC (RFC 1350), Sect. 2, server error messages
should not be acknowledged by the client:

"Most errors cause termination of the connection.  An error is
 signalled by sending an error packet.  This packet is not
 acknowledged ... "

Is there a separate bug reporting facility, or is this mailing list sufficient?
