By "icmp 3/13" do you mean an ICMP Destination Unreachable message (type
3) with a code of "Communication Administratively Prohibited" (13)?

If so, what additional dissection is done?  Destination Unreachable
messages have just type, code, checksum, 4 unused bytes, and the IP
header and first 8 bytes of payload of the datagram that provoked the
error; does some RFC specify that the unused bytes are used for some
purpose for that particular Destination Unreachable message?

If so, in what form are your changes?  If they're already in the form of
a patch, there's no need to send them to somebody to have them create a
patch....
