I can't, because I don't control the spec.  Like I said, it was just wrong
before.  No one has more than 23 MAC addresses anyway.

My patch provides transparent updates to handle it.  It will read broken
EEPROMs and verify the CRC in the old location, and if you have re-save
the EEPROM, it will put the CRC in the right place.
