Yup. But some implementations -- for example, SunOS 4.1.1 -- will ignore
ICMP Unreachable messages with ``unknown'' subcodes. Specifically, it
ignores any messages if that field is greater 5... (It's not Sun's
fault, of course; they inherited that code from 4.2bsd. And 4.4bsd, or
at least BSD/OS, hasn't gotten any better; it *still* rejects unknown
subcodes, though it has a larger set of known ones, including 10.)
