Comment # 1 on bug 12400 from 
This issue only exists on the 1.12 branch and what appears to "save" the other
branches is better checking of IP version in the packet.  Byte 146 is 05 while
in the IP(v4) dissector and 2.0/master branches reject that as an unsupported
version.
Is adding a "version check" really all that's needed or could the ICMPv6 packet
be better crafted to still have a Really Long Loop even with the check in
place?
