The module needs to know one thing: the location of the sender's IP
and port within the data portion of the packet. It currently does that
by looking for the raw IP, and using whatever follows as the port
number.

I believe it's possible to implement a tiny parser without all the
features we don't need. Though I havn't looked at the protocol
in-depth yet.
