Thanks.  Aside from Eli's question I'm fine with this.

I'm wondering if we should mark the qC prefix "bad" too.  I realize
there's already qCRC: and I'm not suggesting we rename that.  But of
the two other stubs I checked today, both supported qC and neither
checked that the C was at the end of the packet.

Amusingly enough, one of them also supported qCRC:, and had a hack to
check for that first.
