On the wire it looked like zero'ed 8 bytes in STREAM_CREATE, while the 
very next STREAM_DATA message had 4 bytes with reasonable data 
(0x0017940e, which indeed incremented nicely in the next STREAM_DATA 
messages). Coincidence?
(Using git 3582adb989cdb6e1e75bf9341ffcebf35e58b737).

BTW: another 8 bytes we could shave off the protocol one day, I presume.
Y.
