I think I see what is happening.  CA requires that every message size be
a multiple of 8 bytes.  This should be done by padding with zeros and
adjusting the message size field.  This CA client is inconsistent with
padding when packing multiple messages into one UDP packet.

> CAS: partial (damaged?) UDP msg of 8 bytes from 10.1.204.140:54439 ?

In this case a message size field is too short, so there are 8 bytes
left over at the end of the packet.

>>> CAS: request from 10.1.204.140:54439 => CAS: Missaligned protocol
rejected

In this case a message size field is too long, so the preceding message
(N=2) body contained the first 8 bytes of the next message.
