Bug: Public-Key Encrypted Session Key Packets?

1998-08-24 10:05:00
5.1. Public-Key Encrypted Session Key Packets (Tag 1)
...
a two-octet checksum is appended which is equal to the
sum of the preceding octets, including the algorithm
identifier and session key, modulo 65536

The CRC doesn't seem to include the algorithm identifiers, at least in RSA
packets output by PGP 2.6.3i and 5.5i
