Comment # 4 on bug 10560 from 
As far as I understand:
* Since CmprI is 6, it means that we should parse 16-6=10 bytes as the suffix
of the first address.
* Since CmprE is 13, it means that we should parse 16-13=3 bytes as the suffix
of the second (last) address.
In practice, Wireshark tries to parse 10 bytes for both addresses, which causes
it to read beyond the Routing Header data.
The comment seems correct, but I'm not sure the implementation matches it.
