I found additional minor errors.  

- Since a PANA-Error-Request may be sent not only in response to a
request but also in response to an answer, it should say "message" in
stead of "request".  The same comment goes to Failed-AVP AVP.

- Also, Failed-AVP AVP format needs to be described in stead of
referring to RFC 3588 because it uses its own AVP Type (4) value
instead of that for Diameter Failed-AVP AVP (279).

So here is the new text for Sections 8.4 and 8.5:

"
8.4.  Failed-AVP AVP

   The Failed-AVP AVP (AVP Code 4) provides debugging information in
   cases where a message is rejected or not fully processed due to
   erroneous information in a specific AVP.  The AVP data is of type
   Grouped.  The format of the Failed-AVP AVP using the ABNF grammar
   defined in [RFC3588] for Grouped AVP is as follows.

           <Failed-AVP> ::= < AVP Header: 4 >
                         1* {AVP}

   In case of a failed grouped AVP, the Failed-AVP contains the whole
   grouped AVP.  In case of a failed AVP inside a grouped AVP, the
   Failed-AVP contains the single offending AVP.

8.5.  Failed-Message-Header AVP

   The Failed-Message-Header AVP (AVP Code 5) provides debugging
   information in cases where a message is rejected or not fully
   processed due to erroneous information in the message.  The AVP data
   is of type OctetString.  The AVP data contains the 16-octet header of
   the message that caused the error.
