The claim it is a buffer overflow is because the reporter claimed =
that he could exploit the bug to overflow a buffer. I suspect the folks =
writing thought it better to be conservative and state there is one even =
though the reporter couldn't provide a repro. I believe the reporter =
didn't understand what he saw and thought that what he was seeing was = due
to an overflow. It was not.
