My apologies. I missed these two items when I last proofread:
****************************
Sections 5.6 (Compressed Data Packet), 5.7 (Symmetrically Encrypted
Data Packet), 5.13 (Sym. Encrypted Integrity Protected Data Packet)
all indicate that they can contain more than one literal packet. This
makes sense for encrypting multiple files together, and both PGP and
GnuPG correctly handle messages with multiple literal packets.
However, the grammar in section 10.2 defines a "Literal Message" as a
single literal packet:
I should clarify exactly what I tested here. Both PGP (8) and GnuPG
worked properly with an encrypted message that contained two literal
packets. That is to say, a regular public key encrypted message
except that the encrypted data packet contained two literal packets
instead of one.
