There is a side-effect to this patch that now we will completely ignore the verification
tag in the INIT-ACK regardless of the violation.

In particular, if the INIT-ACK contains all the fixed parameters but violates structure
in some variable parameters, we'll currently use the Initiate Tag from the INIT-ACK in
the ABORT.   We should not be changing this behavior.

The simple hack is to add some conditional code into the the different violation functions, but
I'd like to see if there is a cleaner way to solve this.
