When interoperabilty fails the fickle finger of blame initially points
to the innocent party *at least* half the time.  And the customer gets
annoyed regardless of who's to blame.

I really hope that if I were to propose and/or implement a new IKE
exchange method, it wouldn't get assigned exchange type 6 by IANA.

Mark exchange type 6 as reserved/deprecated/..., and let's move on.  No
need to officially document what it was, but at least mark the pit so
nobody stumbles into it by accident.
