[TLS] FW: [Technical Errata Reported] RFC5246 (1585)

[<Pasi.Eronen at nokia.com>]

Somehow we missed this one, although this bug was in all
versions from 01 to 10....

Eric: if you can confirm that this errata is correct, I can
mark it as "verified" in the RFC Editor errata database.

Best regards,
Pasi
