Is that change in behaviour (0 sized packets no longer considered an error) intended/correct?
Particularly since I guess that case can happen both due to n being 0 or due the the file being cut at exactly the start of a packet.
(not that it is likely to matter much in practice, but making code less correct to save a single ?: seems like a bad trade-off to me).
